A modern classic in the making. This 5% small hazy ale is bursting with juicy hop character and a crispy, silky mouthfeel. Double dry-hopped with concentrated Mosaic, Citra, and Amarillo, it showcases bright citrus, tropical fruit, and a hint of dankness. Fermented with thiolized yeast, it unlocks deep layers of aroma and flavor, making every sip refreshing yet complex.
Pouring with a perfect pale glow, New Wave is smooth, balanced, and effortlessly drinkable, with a moderate bitterness that keeps you coming back for more.

473ml can. Pours a hazy yellow with yeast particles that settle on the bottom and a medium, frothy, long lasting, off-white head that leaves sticky curtains of soapy lace. Dank, fruity aroma of biscuity pale malt, orange zest, peach, cantaloupe, earthy yeast and floral hops. Sweet fruity flavour of biscuity pale malt, tangerine, pineapple, mango, cantaloupe, earthy yeast and pine in a dry, mild bitter finish. Light body with an oily texture and average carbonation. Solid.

On tap at Threefold. Pours opaque yellow with a white head. Melon and biscuits on the nose. Flavour has some melon, sharp pine, some dankness, biscuit malts, and a good dose of gritty chalk. The hop expression is decent, but the hazy nonsense holds it back.

330mL can, pours a hazy pale golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma has plenty of melony hops, biscuity malt, and a touch of dankness. Flavour is somewhat oniony, with herbal hops, melon, some dankness, a touch of pine, and bready malt. Ditch the onion and this would be better. Decent.

Hazy and quite pale. Bubbly head. Light pine, some herbaceous hop as wellβ¦thyme and sagey things. Fairly bitter. Malt is sweet and somewhat weak but I like that hop character.

Poured from 355mL can (pkg 03/03/25). Hazy gold with small white head. Tropical hops, mild dankness, comes together quite nicely, balanced.
