8oz glass at Beer Revolution YEG Oliver Square - another offering concocted right across the parking lot, just past the Rotten Ronnie's.
This beer appears a clear, very dark amber-highlighted brown colour, with one anemic finger of finely foamy and somewhat bubbly beige head, which leaves a bit of approaching island profile lace around the glass as things slowly sink away.
It smells of roasted, and sort of meaty caramel malt, some musty Belgian yeastiness, medium cocoa powder, cafe-au-lait, a hint of black stone fruitiness, and very tame earthy, herbal, and floral noble hop bitters. The taste is bready and doughy caramel malt, some free-range ashiness, estery old-school yeast, chocolate wafers, day-old coffee grounds, and more well-understated earthy, musty, and dead floral hoppiness.
The carbonation is adequate in its structurally supportive frothiness, the body a solid middleweight, and mostly smooth, with nothing really getting in the way of a swell time at this particular point in the game. It finishes trending dry, the yeast asserting a gentle lingering dominance.
Overall - this comes across as a rather robust version of this unacknowledged style (at least on BA). The yeast factor is applied with a deft hand, which I don't often have the opportunity to say, so, well - good.
