473ml can - a lacto-soured ale, made with passionfruit, and water that comes all the way from the Sawback Mountain Range in the Canadian Rockies.
This beer pours a slightly hazy, pale golden straw colour, with four fingers of puffy, finely foamy, and somewhat creamy off-white head, which leaves some random bubbling witches' cauldron profile lace around the glass as it quickly blows off.
It smells of gritty and grainy cereal malt, a faint tropical fruitiness, some mild lactic sour 'character', and very tame earthy, musty, and dead floral hop bitters. The taste is grainy and crackery pale malt, still rather plain exotic dark fruity notes, milk that's past its expiry date, some estery yeast, and more well-understated earthy, herbal, and musky floral hoppiness.
The carbonation is average in its palate-satiating frothiness, the body a so-so medium weight, and generally smooth, with the supposed tartness not really a cause for concern at this point in the process. It finishes trending dry, the malt chickening out in the lingering safe-space.
Overall - this comes across as a typical version of the style, bland and inoffensive, but perfectly easy to throw back, without any worry of losing yer tooth enamel. Would I have it again? If you don't know the answer to that question, you obviously haven't been paying a lick of attention.
