The ATF Hazy Pale Ale pours a beautiful burnished orange and is bursting with citrus and tropical fruit aromas of passionfruit, mango, and papaya with a hint of rose blossom, balanced beautifully with a full silky mouthfeel. The ATF Hazy Pale Ale is sure to become a favourite.

Yeast is not included in the kit. We recommend using Froth Vape (Assumed Origin: Boddington’s) to produce a juicy hazy with a silky mouthfeel and great hop aroma and flavour.

Alternatively we recommend using Verdant IPA. Lallemand’s Verdant IPA yeast. LalBrew Verdant IPA yeast will produce fruity esters and is well suited to NEIPA’s. Verdant IPA yeast expresses high amounts of β-lyase enzyme promoting biotransformation accentuating hop flavour and aroma. and also produces high amounts of glycerol producing a beer with a silky mouthfeel.

You could also try Froth Spectra (Assumed Origin: Unknown (London)).Spectra can produce a spectrum of radiant flavour & aroma while exhibiting an elegant ester profile and velvety mouthfeel.

Alternatively you could use Lallemand's New England yeast. Lallemand New England produces beers with a unique fruit forward ester profile, which is sought after in NEIPA's. Through expression of a β-glucosidase enzyme, LalBrew® New England can promote hop biotransformation and accentuate hop flavour and aroma.

Please Note: Kettle finings are not provided with this kit as beer clarity is not required for this style of beer.

Biére de Garde (beer for keeping) is a traditional malt oriented farmhouse ale from Northern France that was typically brewed in early winter then cellared (lagered) until spring and summer when it was then consumed.

The ATF D’or Biére de Garde is a golden coloured beer with a malty sweet aroma and a creamy honey like mouthfeel. A complex beer that is spicy, fruity, and peppery, with a dry finish and slight acidity making it very drinkable. The beer will benefit from a period of lagering.

Nukatap Mini Flow Control Set
This bundle combines the four items needed for a standard ball lock set up, including a Duotight 8mm Flow Control Ball Lock Disconnect for fine flow rate control.

Includes:

• Nukatap Mini
• NukaTap Mini Self Closing Tap Spring
• NukaTap Mini - Duotight Adaptor - 8mm
• Keg Connector - Duotight Flow Control - 8mm Liquid

Nukatap Mini - Mini Design - Ideal Flow Rate for Small Systems
Most conventional beer taps are designed with a 10mm diameter nozzle/spout so you can pour pint in just over 10sec.  This type of flow rate is great for high turnover bars and commercial venues but this high flow rate requirement is not not necessary or desirable for all applications.  For compact portable systems, or for home brew draft systems, a slower flow rate is easier to control the flow and further reduces foaming issues due to the low liquid volume stored in the tap body. 

This Nukatap mini is also more ideal for pouring smaller doses.  For example cocktails where 150-250ml of liquid is dispensed is difficult to control with a high flow rate tap.  For portable systems this tap and FC ball lock disconnect assembly is small enough to literally put in your pocket making it ideal for mini keg setups that you want to be portable or that you want to easily fit inside a domestic fridge where space is tight.

Forward Sealing
Forward sealing taps are absolutely the way to go when it comes to beer taps.  The issue with rear sealing taps is that beer dries up on the tap piston.  This is not sanitary and as more and more beer dries up in these components the tap can almost glue complete shut causing damaged seals or broken handles (this is particularly the case if it's left for some time to dry out with beer inside).  These older legacy design still exist probably due to poor education.  The forward sealing design do not have this problem and the tap drains out completely with no beer drying up on the mechanical moving parts in the same way. This makes the tap more sanitary and reduced maintenance.  In may instances the price is similar so there is no reason to use a poorly designed rear sealing tap.  All Nukatap taps are forward sealing.

Laminar Flow
Just like the Nuktap SS and Nukatap FC, the Nukatap Mini has been designed with laminar flow in mind.  Laminar flow is critical for a beer tap as it means you will pour the beer with minimal foaming and a substantial reduction in wastage.  Think about how many times a beer tap opens and closes in it's lifetime - 1000 or maybe 10,000 times?  Laminar flow saves wasted beer in excessive foam and the better laminar flow easily pays for itself in a reduction in lost beer.  Extensive modeling has been done on this Nukatap design to improve laminar flow.

Integrated Seals that are Indestructible and more Sanitary
Unlike other designs, the Nukatap Mini body is made from POK making it strong, robust and able to be autoclaved.  The seals are also over-molded from Santoprene® making them hard wearing so they will literally last for the lifetime of the tap without the need for replacement. Santoprene® and POK both have excellent resistance to chemicals such as caustic soda, peroxide, phosphoric acid, lactic acid, citric acid, acetic acid, and all common chemicals sold and used in the beverage industry.  The seals internally in are over-molded meaning NO fissures or cracks exist for bacteria, crud or yeast to hide.

Superior First Pour Foam Due to Low Thermal Mass and Conductivity
First pour foam is an issue caused by a warm tap body. For most taps to pour well it's important to dispense enough beer to cool the tap body down before the tap will pour well.  In addition to this the conductivity of the tab body also makes this worse so insulative materials simply work better than conductive materials.  The Nukatap mini not only has very low thermal mass but is also highly insulative being made mostly from Santoprene and POK.  The combination of these two factors in conjunction with superior laminar flow makes for the lowest "first pour foam" effect out of any tap ever produced. 

Long Shank Alternative (Sold separately in Duotight design)
Most conventional beer taps require a large 22mm hole to be drilled through the wall of your keezer/cooler/wall.  Traditional long shanks also generally have a large volume of liquid that sits inside the wall unrefrigerated which is not ideal.  This new long shank alternative is designed to suit any wall thickness and greatly reduces the stagnant beer sitting in the shank itself.  For walls up to 80mm thick we have provided three screws however if the wall is thicker you can also use 6 small wood screws or something similar and attach three screws from the front and 3 from the back allowing you to go into any wall type.

Another advantage of this new design is the tap will never accidentally rotate.  Typically other long shank beer taps rely on the hex nut on the shank to be done up tight enough to prevent rotation but if the wall compresses (often the case with foam walls) the tap is allowed to rotate.  This new design has three fixing points making it impossible for the tap to rotate accidentally as the interlocking teeth behind the collet allow you to set the angle and then do up the collet to fix the tap permanently in that position.

Introducing the NZ Pale Ale: A Sensory Journey of Hop Excellence!
With a harmonious blend of Taiheke hops on the hot side and dry-hopped with the dynamic trio of Riwaka, Nectaron, and Nelson Sauvin hops, this beer delivers an extraordinary hop-forward experience that will captivate your senses. 

The combination of Gladfield Light Crystal and Toffee malt, beautifully layered upon a base of American Ale malt, creates a sturdy foundation for the hops to shine. This grain bill contributes a subtle sweetness and a touch of caramel complexity, complementing the hop profile without overpowering it. 

With each sip, you'll discover the remarkable flavours that these hops bring to the forefront. The Taiheke hops, added during the whirlpool, mimicking hop dipping, infuses the beer with a vibrant burst of citrus zest, lime and grapefruit, tantalising your taste buds from the first sip.

The dry hopping takes the flavour experience to new heights as the Riwaka hops provide distinctive grapefruit and resinous notes, the Nectaron hops contribute juicy tropical and stone fruit flavours, and the Nelson Sauvin hops add a distinctively vinous and white wine-like character, with hints of gooseberry and passion fruit.

Balancing the hop intensity is a moderate bitterness that showcases the hops' full potential without overwhelming the palate. The result is a beer that offers a harmonious interplay between the vibrant hop flavours and the smooth, malt-driven body, ensuring a balanced and enjoyable drinking experience.
