Big Hazy Kane
Migration Brewing Company

Remember the can but not the beer. Gave it a really good rating though.

19.2 oz can from Safeway. Hazy, straw colored pour, thin but resilient creamy head. Aroma offers a brief glimpse of citrus, orange and tangerine. Taste brings some biscuity, bready malts, and more of the light citrus touch. Middle of the road but pretty accessible.

19oz can, a month and a half old

Pours two solid fingers of creamy white head into my Willi glass. Retention is pretty nice, the head mostly dissipating after a few minutes, leaving about a half finger behind. Initial lacing looks pretty solid. Body is a hazy dark orange, nearly brown, not the best color. Overall it looks decent.

Nose is pretty safe. You mostly get some nice bready notes from the wheat; a touch of sweetness. Agitation brings some very soft tropical notes, mango, faint citrus. At times this is quite boring, not delivering anything even close to the punch of aroma that some hazies have; but it has its moments, and at other times it represents a nice, soft, smooth hazy, with a touch of malty sweetness. Certainly not what most breweries are going for, and I’m not sure I love it, but it’s piquing my interest.

Unfortunately the flavor falls more on the bland side. There is really nothing going on flavor wise other than a small malt presence. This is almost shockingly neutral.

The mouthfeel is slightly redeeming. It has a medium carbonation that adds a small bit of effervescence, but there is also a smooth feel that the medium body brings. Sweetness is pretty low, and the bitterness is barely noticeable.

Drinkability is fine, this is the most nothing thing I have tasted in a long time, but at least it’s not offensive.

Appearance turned out pretty nice. The head longevity was impressive. The lacing was patchy, and took a minute to grab on, but not terrible.

Overall, what more is there to say? This tastes like nothing. Not sure how you miss on that with one of the most potent styles on the planet. I can also confirm that this is not a bad can or anything, I’ve had this on draft and the flavor is only slightly bigger.

Looks like pulpy orange juice.
Smells of hops and stone fruit.
tastes of peach,mango & tangerines.
Mouthfeel is much like eating papaya, lingers on the palate a long while.
Quite nice

 

 

The specs below say 8.5% ABV but the can says 6.5%, and I believe thecan. Hazy, almost murky pour, bright fruity Roma, tight head. Taste is more NEIPA, with dominantly hop flavor, but not harsh. We pick up some unusual, different flavors - not bad or negative, but it might be some unusual hops from far away. Can says "exotic" which hints at that. It's a big 19.2 oz can. You can pickup one and give it a try.

 

One of those 19.2 oz. cans . Purchased today from Safeway in West Salem OR.
Kinda expensive..

Pours a murky orange juice with pulp coloured body. Lovely smooth, tick and creamy white head..about inch and a half.
Intense juicy fruit aromas! Peach, tangerine, papaya, mango..reallt nice if you like fruit.
Flavour has all of these and more..also getting that minty aspect in the back which i get with good hazies.
Really nice bubbly mouth feel and leaves the palate clean..semi dry in finish. Very good and unusual for a Hazy.
Nice beer here..very good hazy IPA
