355ml can - I presume that the name of this offering is supposed to be hipster ironic?
This beer pours a slightly hazy, pale golden yellow colour, with three fingers of puffy, rocky, and mildly fizzy bone-white head, which leaves some decent wispy cirrus cloud pattern lace around the glass as it quickly blows off.
It smells of funky yeast, grainy and crackery cereal malt, dried cat piss, aged lemon peel, and some weak earthy, musty, and floral green hop bitters. The taste is gritty and grainy pale malt, more estery yeastiness, faint earthy spice, a muddled domestic citrus fruitiness, and more plain leafy, musty, and herbal hoppiness.
The carbonation is fairly meek in its pithy frothiness, the body a so-so medium weight, and not all that smooth, as the yeasty essence makes for tough slogging at this particular juncture (ok, at all times, actually). It finishes trending dry, the malt ceding the floor to the lingering yeast.
Overall - yeah, there is nothing 'Shampagne' about this offering, where they have foregone subtly and blasted us with an unpleasant acrid yeasty banality. Not enjoyable, as I don't fucking care how 'dry' it is - maybe focus more on flavour, if I may provide some constructive criticism?
