Google+ Business New Review Sharing Feature?

Google+ Local IconGoogle seems to be testing a new format for sharing reviews on Google+ of Google My Business (Google Places) listings.

Jade Wang quietly posted a review of a restaurant on Google+ and the format was nothing like I saw before:

Google Place Test Jade

The weird part is that when I tested either sharing the location or sharing a review I posted on that place, I got a totally different interface posted on my Google+ profile:

Google Place Share

Google Place Shared

Jade's review doesn't even show up for me on the reviews section for that eatery.

You can check out Jade's Google+ post to see it yourself. Chris Lang agreed with me that this was new and said "check in style map link and image." Indeed.
