This 100% Nelson Sauvin hopped DIPA is packed with over 7 lbs per barrel of various Nelson crops to create an intense spectrum of Nelson amazingness. Notes of tropical white wine, Mt.

From Good Times Oakland, canned February 16th.
Pours hazy orange, small head of foam, retention and lacing are fine.
The smell is grapefruit, stone fruit, faint white wine, not so faint tropical fruit/dankness.
The taste is big juicy citrus, stone and tropical fruit, white wine, dankness. Juicy.
On the light side of medium bodied, I would drink this again. But no hurry.

Pint can de et partagée avec Tderoeck. Merci !
Canned 03 June 2024.
Dorée pâle, col crémeux blanc.
Arôme est chargé en houblon – effet de humer un sac frais de houblon – ici c’est chargé en résine, hop oil, pin avec ce bouquet signature de Nelson, à savoir le côté ‘vin blanc’, qui reste plutôt absent.
Palais est identique avec un bon niveau de ‘dankness’ – je me suis même assez étonné que cela se limite à du 100% Nelson ! Bonne dose de résine pour une bière qui oscille tout de même plus vers un style ‘double hazy’ qu’une classique DIPA. Fruité sur la fin, assez sèche en fin de bouche ce qui renforce ma sensation quant au style. In fine, reste une belle grosse IPA américaine.

16 oz. can, pours an opaque chalky yellow with a medium white head. Aroma brings out tangy, citrusy hops, with some white wine character, and pithy stone fruits. Flavour is fairly dank and tangy, with lots of pot-like hops, tangy citrusy notes, some white wine, and fairly minimal chalk upfront, despite some muddy earthiness in the body. Tangy, citrusy finish, with subtle dankness. As I get further into this, the chalky body becomes more detracting. Good hop character on the nose and upfront on the palate, but the body isn't all that great. Solid overall, but still a chalky hazy.

Cloudy beige yellow beer, big creamy yellowish head, stable, bit adhesive, leaving some lacing in the glass. Aroma: very dank, a bit sweet impression, lots of tropical fruits, juicy, marijuana, good stuff! MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: good bitterness, very dank, marijuana, onion, dry, citrus notes, lovely. Aftertaste: nice bitterness, citrus notes, grapefruit.

Poured from a 16 oz can dated January 27, 2020. Aroma is very hop forward with lots of gooseberry, tropical citrus, white wine and tons of dank, resin notes. Light cracker malt notes and a bit of alcohol spice. Pours a very, murky, hazy, golden-orange with a medium large, thick, frothy, white head that recedes steadily to a small film that lingers. Moderate lacing and faint legs. Flavor is slightly sweet with light cracker malt notes. Moderately strong bitterness with light alcohol spice. Loads of hop notes - gooseberry, white wine, tropical citrus and dank, resin notes. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a nice beer. Lots of Nelson hop character, though still a bit green. Man, I love this hop.

Draught at Gourmet Haus in Redwood City. Overall a moderate beer on all fronts. Slight tropics and pine. Missing a bit of the normal punch from cellarmaker.
