Bottle. Orange, caramel malt, and orange peel aroma. Hazy golden yellow with large eggshell white head. Moderately sweet orange, caramel malt, and moderately bitter earthy grapefruit peel/dry grass flavor. Decent body. Interesting hops.

Can dated best by 11/23/16 into an IPA glass. A: Poured roughly to a huge off-white foamy head. Pale, slightly hazy burnt orange body. Great head retention and prolific lace. S: Light scent overall with orange/grapfruit notes out front. Faint caramel. T: Bitter and roasty at first. Some orange and zest then join but hops seem muted. M: Dry finish with soft carbonation. Medium body is pretty drinkable. O: Average to good overall. Certainly nothing to complain about and well worth a try.

12oz bottle. Never a good sign when brewers aren’t even aware of their own culture...How can you name a beer Full Nelson that seemingly has so Nelson Sauvin hops in it? Has that earthy caramel and NW hops tone going on, tastes like a beer from 15 years ago. I would have been more disappointed had a I picked up a sixpack instead of a single. Drab and unenticing. Some earthy onion/garlic hops tones.

Hazed deep golden color with a fine thick white head. Nice lacing. Some toffee, dried fruits and hoppy aroma. Medium (+) body and a smooth soft carbonation. Tad sweet and a fine bitterness. Oily texture. Lasting finish. Nice balanced flavor that keeps itself within the harse limits. Could easily falled over to the wrong side. Dried fruits, apricot, grapefruit and some pine. Solid hopjuice.
