Bottle at home, thanks to the Wingman for sourcing, 23/07/20. Hazed orange with a big old frothy cream cap formed of tightly knit bubbles. Nose is tangerine, stoned fruits, pissy Nelson nostril tickle, light pine resin, papaya. Taste comprises orange pith, white grape skins, pissy Nelson mash, light skunk, soft malts, gooseberries, lychee, peach. Medium bodied, soft massaging carbonation, semi drying close spliced with juicy Nelson cum. Solid quaffable pale ... loads of flavour for the ABV and great hop presence.

Light haze on this paleish gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, fairly dry, decent fine carbonation. Softish malts, a light creamy sweetness. Quite a bright Nelson here, smooth pine, a little bright citrus and a reminder that Nelson used to be a super grapey hop. The finish could be cleaner, quite a pithy tangy bitterness that could be hop dust, and that bitterness lingers long. A decent affair overall though.

Bottle at home in Hackney - sourced from the brewery's online shop. Pours mostly clear yellow-gold with a foamy, white head. Delicious nelson expression, some pee, white grape, melon, tangerine, light rindy bitterness. Light bodied with massaging carbonation. Balanced finish, more vibrant hops, some dank notes, supportive pale bread, delicate bitterness. Super drinkable. Nice bitter aftertaste.
