Herevana – Deep Creek – Misty Miagi

Deep Creek. Misty Miagi. If you want to talk beers that I’d travel to drink this would be one of them. I’ve really enjoyed this beer a few times too many at the brewery when it’s been available, and I still consider it a right treat when it’s available and I get overly excited when I notice that it’s popped back up on the taps.

Deep Creek Misty Miyagi is brewed local to me in 🇳🇿 Auckland, New Zealand and it’s a IPA – Hazy / New England (NEIPA) kind of beer that. is 6.5% ABV’s

I don’t think I’ve even ever had this in a can before, fresh is best and all that jib-jab, also fresh is an excuse for me to go to the pub, right?

Another Hazy that sits at the duller end of the spectrum, but this has a really nice fruit sweet aroma and a lovely bright white head atop. If you know me I fixate on the head of beer a little too much. This is a deeper taste, which masks the fruitiness a little, I’m not sure I remember it quite this way from the on tap version.

There’s a lovely lingering fullness mouth bitterness that comes with this, it’s not really a lingering, more a mooching but it you hunt for it you can still find it a goodly time later. I really like this beer,

The pdubyah-o-meter surged to a 9 from 10 of the arbitrary number things. I don’t care what the ratings are from the overseas crowd where they can get it, I think that this, on tap, is a must-have beer, and I’ve held it up as a benchmark, up there with the 802’s and those beers we hold up as icons and beer I would give you if you didn’t know what the hazy IPA was about. Fight me.
