473ml can - yet another new Albertan brewery, and yet another blonde ale as their opening gambit.
This beer pours a clear, medium golden yellow colour, with two fingers of puffy, loosely foamy, and somewhat fizzy off-white head, which leaves some scattered snow rime pattern lace around the glass as it slowly seeps away.
It smells of gritty and grainy cereal malt, an underripe pome fruitiness, mild earthy yeast notes, and very faint leafy, weedy, and musty green hop bitters. The taste is bready and grainy pale malt, subtle mixed apple and orange fruit salad, some damp minerality, and more rather underwhelming earthy, herbal, and floral hoppiness.
The carbonation is average in its palate-satisfying frothiness, the body a decent middleweight, and generally smooth, with nothing really getting in the way of a ho-hum time at this particular juncture. It finishes trending dry, the malt getting all biscuity in its lingering pose.
Overall - this comes across as a competent, if not exactly remarkable version of the typical bland base style. I see now that they were going for something along the lines of a newbie/beer geek Vulcan mind meld, but that works better in theory, than in practice, I'm afraid to say.
