650ml bottle - I guess Alberta missed out on the Gose with Nectarines, or maybe they ran out, and had to substitute peaches for the new batch, eh?

This beer pours a hazy, medium golden apricot colour, with two fingers of puffy, finely foamy, and fizzy dirty white head, which leaves some cooling magma lace around the glass as it quickly blows off.

It smells of dried candied peaches, gritty and grainy pale malt, white saltine crackers, and some indistinct earthy mustiness. The taste is more dry, yet fruity peaches, a bit of further nectarine-esque stone fruitiness, bland pale malt, mild lacto notes, diluted salt water, a hint of earthy yeastiness, and very tame leafy, weedy, and musky floral verdant hops.

The carbonation is adequate in its quotidian frothiness, the body a so-so middleweight, and generally smooth, nothing trying all that hard to mess with the status quo here. It finishes off-dry, the battered peaches and wan lingering malt the order of the day.

Overall, this is an approachable and enjoyable enough version of the style, with the typical sour and salty essences more or less tamped down by the guest orchard fruit. Easy-drinking, but don't go in expecting the complexity of your more true to form offerings - but you already knew that, right?
