Edison’s Medicine
Revelation Ale Works

From a can dated 3-7-2023, consumed on 5-28-2023
Very juicy looking pour. It is murky and hazy looking. Light yellow in color. The head is quite thick, and I didn't do an aggressive pour. 3 finger fluffy, frothy, cloud like head. The head retention is decent, and there's some great lacing as the head dissipates.
The aroma is somewhat light, and this can is not at fridge temp anymore. I do get some tropical citrus notes, but they are faint. I get some pineapple.
There is some citrus and it builds in the tasting. I get grapefruit, and pineapple when drinking it. These flavors provide some tartness to the mix. I seem to burp up hops for a while.
The body is quite soft feeling, and it also is juicy feeling.
Overall, this isn't bad at all. It does what it's intended to and does it well.

Canned 11/14/22 (3.5 months ago)

Appearance: Pours a mostly clear (15% clarity) medium to dusky orange color with a strong and thick white head that lingers. Some sediment floating within. SRM of 7-8. (3.75)

Aroma: Moderate aromas of juicy orange, lemon, pineapple with a tropical mango and watermelon aromas underneath. (3.75)

Flavor: Moderate flavors of juicy orange, ripe peach, some tropical mango and watermelon. Soft pale malt sweetness. Juicy and leans sweet. (3.75)

Feel: Medium to heavier bodied, decent carbonation. Finishes smooth and malty, soft. (3.50)

Compared to BlackStack Pull Tabs 3/2023: Pours darker, similar head. Milder aromas. More juicy peach, watermelon, and malt body. Less juicy citrus and hops.

Overall: An okay NEIPA here. A bit heavier and sweet. Turns to a bit of the melon and peach flavors. A nice soft malt body but I would say below average. maybe it was better when fresh. Not terrible, but still below average here. (Rating: 3.73)

Picked this up when I was out in Minnesota a few months ago, as I never had anything from Revelation before. Never heard of them either but Edison was big here in New Jersey and with a label like this, how could I resist? Toss in locally sourced ingredients and this was a must-have, as this easily lived up to my expectations!

Straw in hue and softly translucent, this was topped off by an even-keeled head that settled slowly and quietly. Very little lacing remained behind with only a few hints of rings remaining as I sipped this. Lots of wheat, tangy citrus, and white peach in the nose as the taste was on par with the muted aroma. Star and passion fruit, melon, and soft tropical fruit emerged once this fully warmed up as this was a wonderful and varied taste the seamlessly melded with the wheat as this was nicely balanced, subtly carbonated, and a joy to drink from start to finish.

The amount of alcohol was perfect and on par with this beer's heft as the Mosaic ensured that this was just a bit dank in the aftertaste. A mineral water-like feel topped this off with the beer coming across as clean, crisp, and easily worth another go-around. All that was missing was a date on the bottom of the can but when I return to the Land of 10,000 Lakes, I'll readily seek this out again!

Pours a light golden straw color nice lacing/head. Smell is tropical fruit . Taste has citrus ,honeydew and guava. Mouth feel soft and more sweet than dry. Thought this was tasty and well made for the style.

So smooth and tasty!
