8oz glass at Beer Revolution YEG Oliver Square.
This beer appears a clear, bright medium golden yellow colour, with one finger of puffy, loosely foamy, and bubbly bone-white head, which leaves a solid wall of thin paint job lace around the glass as things slowly progress.
It smells of gritty and grainy cereal malt, some generic pome fruitiness, faint gasohol, and some leafy, weedy, and floral noble hop bitters. The taste is grainy and crackery pale malt, red apple skin, a touch of buttery bread, ethereal petrol notes, and more understated earthy, musty, and floral hoppiness.
The carbonation is adequate in its structurally supportive frothiness, the body a decent middleweight, and generally smooth, with nothing really causing any sort of trouble at this particular juncture. It finishes off-dry, the malt pushing the lingering envelope.
Overall - this comes across as an earnest first stab at producing a lager for this upstart contract brewery. They could work on the crispness quotient, IMHO, but otherwise, I am enjoying this quaff, as sunshine and warmth arrive back to us on this lazy-ass Sunday afternoon.
