650ml bottle - I'm not quite certain what this one's name actually refers to, but it is made with 'Alberta grown Synergy barley'.

This beer pours a clear, bright medium golden yellow colour, with three fingers of puffy, finely foamy, and somewhat fizzy bone-white head, which leaves some cannonball splash aftermath lace around the glass as it slowly blows off.

It smells of bready and crackery pale malt, some further cereal graininess, indistinct pome fruity notes, ephemeral generic citrus, and very subtle leafy and grassy green hop bitters. The taste is lightly toasted white bread, gritty mixed malt cereals, some muddled citrus and apple/pear fruitiness, a touch of flinty stoniness, and more tame leafy, grassy, and wet hay-like hoppiness.

The carbonation is fairly adequate via its workaday frothiness, the body a decent middleweight, and mostly smooth, with a small airy creaminess arising as things get out of the range of yer typical bar fridge temperatures. It finishes off-dry, and still rather cereal-forward, like I'm in a harvest-ready farmer's field.

Overall, this is really a fresh, enticing pale ale, the focus obviously being on the malt, with the hops playing an earnest second fiddle. Enjoyable for what it is, but I just wish that it was called 'Anti-snow Ale' - now that, I could make use of right now!
