Hopped with 100% Nelson Sauvin hops and dry hopped at 3 lbs. per barrel for pleasantly diesel-like, tropical fruit and melon aromas. As usual we used only the best Nelson from Freestyle Farms in New Zealand, a farm that we have traveled to in the past to select their finest hops.

On a flight at the Rock-In Bar (inside Whole Foods, Laguna Niguel) on 26th June 2024. Cloudy golden body, white affair on top. Dank and dry feel to this, like a hoppy white wine with knobs on.

Smooth, slightly dank, juicy floral hoppy and vinous grapey with hints of pine, ripeish tropical fruits, mild bitterness and maltiness. Pretty balanced and crushable

Hazy and vibrant colour. Medium head. Such a bright and deep nelson aroma. Damn, that’s a good showcase. Soft malt, lean, moderate bitterness, and again big, shining Nelson.

Can. Pours hazy golden yellow, merlin creamy white head, great lacing. Aroma is light, dank, pot, armpit, catcpiss, pine. Flavor is light sweet, light bitter. Light body. Eminently drinkable. Better with a week on it than super fresh.

Canned 8th March, so not far off 2.5weeks old, which isn't bad considering I'm in Scotchland! It pours cloudy bright pineapple yellow/gold with a fluffy white head. The aroma is fresh, soft and fruity, sweet white grape, light melon, greengage, dolly mixtures, touch of green dankness and floury bread. The taste is soft, sweetish, juicy, floury bread, some greenness, soft fruity character, white grape, melon, greengage, mid palate dryness, floury bread, pithy grapefruit, wet grass, dank edge and a touch of spice with a drying finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Soft, smooth and rounded. Taste not quite up to the lovely aroma. Very pleasant stuff anyhow.

Thanks Sam for sharing! Taster showing pale gold with sparse white foam. The nose shows moderately intense notes of cream and pineapple with hints of like. The palate is moderately carbonated and full bodied. Moderately intense notes of pineapple, cannabis, and pine with a mild bitterness.

Can at Trillium Field Trip, 8/4/18.
Thoroughly hazy, pale-brassy-golden with a sizable white head showing moderate retention.
Nose is markedly full of well-done Nelson hops. Light, dry passion fruit mixing with rich, mineral-heavy white wine and leafy, dank, lush, pine-tinged lemon. Biscuit and cracker behind it is light and stays out of the way. No alcohol, flaw or resin. Gets lightly-to-moderately juicy with warming.
In the mouth it's very soft, dry and "fuzzy" with engaging, low carbonation and chewy, biscuity, malty textures. Passion fruit, lime, pine, lemon and mineral are strong, growing tropical and juicy over time. Clean and free of resin, though still a bit subdued, overall.

16 oz. can @ Field Trip 2018. This is what I look for in the hot variety. White grape, dry hair, with a very nicely dry texture. Mild juice. Very refreshing and what I expect from Cellarmaker, great!
