18oz pint (I guess) at the brewpub downtown, temporarily removed from the craziness apparently going on outside in this point in our history.
This beer appears a murky, medium apricot amber colour, with one skinny finger of loosely foamy, wispy, and bubbly beige head, which leaves some resplendent pockmarked limestone cliff formation lace around the glass as things slowly progress.
It smells of bready and doughy caramel malt, some cinnamon and clove earthy spiciness, muddled dark pome fruity notes, overripe bananas, and some plain leafy, musty, and grassy hop bitters. The taste is rather sweet grain and crackery cereal malt, bruised apples and pears, mixed holiday spice, and more well-understated earthy, weedy, and herbal hoppiness.
The carbonation is adequate in its palate-pleasing frothiness, the body a solid middleweight, and mostly smooth, with a subtle airy creaminess seeping in as things slowly warm up around here. It finishes well off-dry, the malt pretty much running the lingering aftershow.
Overall - this comes across as a pleasant enough version of the style, full of flavour, and easy enough to tip back, on yet another day of the aforementioned social inanity. Kudos to Jacquie (sp?), my thankfully normal-seeming waitress here.
