Double Vision Brewing
"A little nonsense now and then is relished by the wisest men." So take a break and treat yo' self we're nothing like a f****ng elf. They make toys and we make beer, so which one really brings more cheer? You know the answer now and then but might forget if you have ten. 440mls of Porter's Might will bring you chocolate orange delight.
Prepare for a wild ride with Near Miss, the Red IIPA that’s as bold as the collaboration between the mad scientists at Double Vision Brewing and the seasoned pros at Emerson's! This brew is all about New Zealand brewing, and it turns out that this recipe has landed somewhere between Oreti Red (the predecessor of Daredevil) and Red Rascal (the first beer of ours Richard Emerson loved) in terms of malt bill, process, and hop schedules... but has the throttle turned up to 8.2% to maximise the flavour!Near Miss gets its name from one of the first times we were out in Dunedin with Richard and Greg. We got Flamingo Scooters to take to town from the brewery, and Richard had never used one. The only problem we realised at full speed was that he didn’t know how to stop! He was screaming, “How do you STOP?!” while we yelled back instructions. Only when we remembered he couldn’t hear us did we look back and gesture how to hit the brakes. He slammed the brakes, put his foot down, and came to a halt right before a busy intersection. It was truly a Near Miss!
