Our Nelson Sauvin from our friends @freestylehops in NZ is so delightful we had to try it out in our biggest single hop format.

16oz can pours a pulpy yellow with plenty of sudsy white head. Nose has bubblegum, pineapple, some booze, some stinky melon. Flavor is sweet with vanilla and pineapple and melon and lemon sherbet, booze. Full bodied, bitter and boozy finish. A bit of a treat.

Can (12/16/21) pour. It's an opaque orange-yellow with trace sparkle, 2-finger rocky off-white foam head with excellent retention and nice rings of lacing. Aroma is strong tropical fruit, fruit salad and white grape. Taste is strong, bright fruit and grape but with alcohol in the background. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with smooth, soft, velvety texture, average carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, beautiful beer with a great feel. Aroma is strong with nice complexity and taste is good, too, but doesn't entirely cover the alcohol. Still, not aware it's this strong an ABV--be careful!

16/XI/21 - 1Pt. can from Bierhalle Deconinck (Vichte), shared @ home, canned: V/14/21 (2021-1450)
Cloudy blond yellow beer, big creamy irregular off-white head, stable, adhesive, leaving some lacing in the glass. Aroma: fruity touch, sweet impression, bit malty, resinous. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: bitter start, sweet malts as well, grains, bit resinous, sugary, nice! Aftertaste: good bitterness, sweet and sugary, danks hops, nice stuff going on. Not mind blowing though.

Thick and creamy, really smooth. Tropical fruit, herbals, florals, a bit sweet. Crazy soft and smooth but not my fave hop profile. Very nice still.
