8oz glass at Beer Revolution YEG Oliver Square - made right across the parking lot at the downtown Edmonton Brewsters.

This beer appears a clear, bright medium copper amber colour, with one skinny finger of weakly puffy, loosely foamy, and somewhat bubbly off-white head, which leaves some scary haunted woods lace around the glass as it quickly blows off.

It smells of grainy and crackery cereal malt, a berry-forward fruitiness, subtle yeast, and some plain earthy, leafy, and floral noble hop bitters. The taste is gritty and grainy pale malt, some muddled dark orchard fruity notes, lager yeast, and more understated earthy, herbal, and floral green hoppiness.

The carbonation is fairly benign in its bored-seeming frothiness, the body a decent middleweight, and essentially smooth, with a thin airy creaminess evolving as things warm up a tad around here. It finishes off-dry, the malt and attendant fruity esters running the lingering table.

Overall - this is a pleasantly rendered version of the old-school style, nice and fruity, and easy enough to put back. The biggest surprise to me about this one, is that they haven't made this sort of thing previously, given who the brewmaster was there for such a long time - guten tag, Gunther!
