Neal Gets Things Done

440ml can. Murky, yellow-ish, bright golden colour with average to huge, creamy, moderately lasting and lacing, white head. Fruity, minimally grassy, hoppy aroma, notes of unripe kiwi fruit, gooseberry, white grapes, some grapefruit, orange peel, oaty malty background; subtle hints of lemon and lime, fresh hay, very cautious cheesy overtones, even some broccoli. Taste is tart-ish and slightly bitter, fruity hoppy, notes of gooseberry, white grapes, kiwi fruit, some grapefruit, grapefruit peel, lemon, dry, oaty malty basis with little residual sweetness; lingering fruity finish with increased lemon portion, a touch of lemon biscuit. Creamy texture, smooth and soft, minimally cloying palate, fine, mildly prickly carbonation. Harmonious and balanced, quite some subtleties, drifts from Nelson dominated green fruit to Citra dominated yellow (lemon) - very good!

Can. Hazy yellow body under a fluffy white head. Strong fruity aroma of tropical fruit, apricot and some mango. Taste is fresh and fruity like aroma, same tropical fruit etc, but hint of grapefruit, ripe peaches/marmalade and oranges as well. Some zesty bitterness. Fine body and long-lasting aftertaste. Very refreshing and quite complex within the fruity juicy specter.

Can. Pours a very light and hazy yellow, some frothy head. Aroma is fresh hops, light citrus, lemon peel, orange, peach and grapefruit. Light melon and grape. Intense pine and grass. Medium body. Flavour is light malt, wheat and oat, grape, hint of melon. Light bitterness, but it's there. Intense grass and pine, lemon peel, grapefruit, orange, peach. I'm not a fan of Nelson Sauvin unless it's well-integrated with other hops - as it is here. Really like the NS character together with the dank mosaic and citrussy citra. Really nice hop combo. Excellent. As always.

Appearance is murky soupy golden, with a clingy half-finger pure white head. Aroma is oniony hops, hop resin, grapefruit, fresh fruit, grapefruit, mango. Taste is juicy fruit, mango, peach, pineapple, bitter hops, soft pillowy mouthfeel, juicy bitter finish. Very good.
