8oz glass at Beer Revolution YEG Oliver Square - don't quite know if this is one of the variants, but it's still a killer pun, a slayer, if you will.
This beer appears a cloudy, medium apricot yellow colour, with a thin cap of wispy and bubbly off-white head, which leaves a bit of spotty lace around the glass as things slowly abate.
It smells of bready and crackery cereal malt, some muddled domestic citrus rind, a mild earthy yeastiness, and very tame leafy, herbal, and dead floral hop bitters. The taste is gritty and grainy pale malt, mildly estery yeast, ethereal earthy spice, some damp minerality, and more well-understated leafy, weedy, and musky floral hoppiness.
The carbonation is quite subdued in its palate-dulling frothiness, the body a decent middleweight, and generally smooth, nothing really causing any trouble at this particular juncture. It finishes off-dry, the malt showing off its lingering swagger.
Overall - this comes across as a pleasantly rendered version of the style, a sort of 'don't offend anyone with any sass, or the like'. Easy enough to put back, but not all that metal, IMHO.
