Revival draught, 8/15/25.
Heavily hazy, lightly milky, bronze-maize-golden. Small, white head steadily to ring.
Soft and juicy with excellent spice and mineral. Balanced by deep, honey-like malts. No resin or alcohol noted. Tropical fruit, white wine and low acidity.
Big burst of orange juice with mango and lots of spice on the end. Soft and supple malts with good attenuation. Clean, clear flavors but the nose seemed to have promised more complexity than I'm getting. Really just getting lots of Citra, which, to be fair, is done well. Solid all-around. And there is SOME NZ hop character, just not a ton. But I guess that's unsurprising for Waimea which is more of a bittering hop.

Draught @ The Pony Bar, Manhattan NYC. Extremely hazy dull yellow like orange juice, large foamy light beige head, unripe mango-corlander aroma, adequate carbonation, mildly bitter unripe mango-citrus-apricot taste herbal flavor, smooth body, long finish. Tasty brew.
