First Lost Palms brewed Talle Daze Hazy Pale as a limited release. And the people wanted more. So they they brought Talle Daze into the core range. Still the people wanted more. So now they’ve brewed Talle Mid Daze, a version that drops the ABV from the original 5.6 percent to just below 4.† You certainly can’t say Lost Palms don’t listen to their community!
The intention here was to keep the spirit of the original while dropping the booze, but that doesn’t mean this is just a Mini Me.†† While the tropical hop profile of Talle Daze was retained, Talle Mid needed a shift in the malt to ensure the body held up, and you can both see and taste the influence of crystal malt.
This sessionable version means you can drink a couple more cans of Mid Daze while feeling a bit brighter at midday.
It also makes me wonder if Talle Double Daze is next on the roster.

†Apparently Tallebudgera Creek is exactly 3.95km from Lost Palms’ brewery in Miami, so the brew team worked with precision to get the beer’s ABV to 3.95 percent – a cute detail for a cute beer.
††I was about to apologise for making yet another pre-2000 reference, but at some point I think I need to just own it.
