1L howler from Sherbrooke Liquor store - apparently 'S.Y.C.' stands for 'show your colours', but my mind always jumps to 'say you can!'.
This beer pours a clear, bright pale golden straw colour, with three fingers of puffy, loosely foamy, and bubbly eggshell white head, which leaves some amorphous blob profile lace around the glass as it evenly subsides.
It smells of bready and doughy cereal malt, some estery yeastiness, faint pome fruity notes, a touch of black peppercorn spiciness, and very, very subtle earthy, musty, and dead floral hop bitters. The taste is gritty and grainy pale malt, a touch of edgy wheatiness, ethereal domestic citrus peel, more understated peppery spice, dead yeast cells, and more well-understated leafy, herbal, and musky floral hoppiness.
The carbonation is average in its palate-probing frothiness, the body a so-so medium weight, and more or less smooth, with nothing really a cause for concern at this particular juncture. It finishes trending dry, the yeasty character kind of bleeding out the lingering aspirations of the malt.
Overall - this comes across as a well-made version of the style, nice and light and crisp. Easy enough to put back on a holiday afternoon we call Family Day, while I contemplate whether or not I want to deal with said relations of mine.
