Tahoe Haze
Revision Brewing Company

 

 

 

 

 

Look: hazy pale yellow in color with a 1/2" head that lasts a bit.

Smell: grapefruit and some tropical fruit aroma rise from the glass.

Taste: grapefruit, orange, and mango are most notable, with a moderate bitterness.

Mouthfeel: crisp throughout. Long lasting fruit flavors.

Overall: a good hazy IPA that is refreshing.

 

 

 

Pours a very cloudy golden yellow color with a thick foamy head. Head retention is good. Lacing is very good. Has a nice, fresh, juicy citrus aroma with lemon and tangerine. Stronger lemon taste with some juicy tangerine at the end. Mild bitterness. Light to medium bodied with moderate carbonation.

 

A-nearly identical color to Hazy Life from Revision (solid lemon yellow haze), except that the head was't as big and didn't last as long.
S-mango, grassy
T-mango on the front, lemon and grass (lemongrass?) on the backend. Appropriately sweet and nearly no bitter as true to the style
M-light (+) or Medium (-), but still reasonably viscous on the swirl. Tingly carbonation, slightly below average level.
O-crushable, finishes clean, and leaves you (me) wanting more

cool can on this one. these guys are doing an awesome job getting super fresh beer to boise, i know its not that far or anything, but its nice to trust that when i buy revision, the beer is going to be brand new! this one is simple, citra and mosaic in a classic hazy, a little less weird and adventurous than a lot of theirs have been, but it sure is tough to argue the quality. pale and soft straw colored brew from the can, a little viscosity to it and a bit less head and head retention than some of theirs have, but by no means flat or lacking life. the aroma has some slightly unique notes for these well known hop varietals, a hint of honeydew melon up front which i dont always get from these, and then the more familiar meyer lemon, before a pop of lemongrass and lemon candy. its fresh and pungent, a bit of canned pineapple from the mosaic, dry starchy cereal grain base, clean fermentation it seems. the flavor is solid, the hop strains are readily identifiable, and there is a cool up front blast to them, added intensity above their norm, maybe a cryo situation here, not sure, but it wouldnt surprise me. some tangerine, green grape, and pineapple through the finish, fluffy texture, almost creamy feel, delicious hop freshness without any green bite, very solid overall, even if its a little more of a known entity with these particular hops. revision keeps killing it with the hoppy stuff, so thankful to have them available here in boise!

On tap in Boise, ID, served in an IPA nonic. Opaquely hazy lemonade/juice body with a creamy off-white head that leaves some lacing. The nose is full of hoppy and citrusy notes, with pineapple and orange and lime...the palate reveals the same...light-to-medium body, good flavors and nose for a 6.5% abv brew. Very familiar for a Revision hazy. Good stuff.

 

 

 

A very solid IPA.

Standard golden haze
Smooth feel with a decent ABV to match
Taste fell a little flat, feels like it could've packed an extra punch.

I got to try this canned, would love to try sometime on draft. Unfortunately, this beer was the one to send me into acid reflux mode shortly after which is rare. Though I will likely have to blame that on the BBQ as well. Will update review if I get the chance to try it again.
