16oz glass at Beer Revolution YEG Oliver Square. Made with Mandarina hops, I'm guessing.
This beer appears a slightly hazy, pale golden yellow colour, with a thin cap of wispy and bubbly off-white head, which leaves some decent shoreline profile lace around the glass as things slowly sink away.
It smells of bready and crackery pale malt, a lesser biscuity wheatiness, some red berry fruity notes, a further orange and lemon juice character, faint earthy yeast, and more leafy, weedy, and floral green hop bitters. The taste is gritty and grainy pale malt, wet wheat crackers, some strawberry bubblegum, ethereal earthy yeast, and more understated leafy, herbal, and musky floral hoppiness.
The carbonation is fairly low-key in its innocuous frothiness, the body a so-so middleweight, and generally smooth, with nothing really causing any sort of trouble at this particular juncture. It finishes trending dry, the frooty essences waning in the lingering light.
Overall - this comes across as a pleasantly rendered, supposedly single-hopped version of the style. Crisp, and pretty easy to put back, on my self-defined birth-in-lieu day. Worth checking out, especially if you like hoppy wheat ales.
