Nelson isn't super strong. Murky yellow pour with decent head. Lemon. Hop tang finish. Can from Churchkey.

Canned 11/2/23, drunk 12/8/23. Heavily hazy, bronze-maize-golden. Small, off-white head, moderately-well-retained. Stone fruit, white grape, light mineral and lots of citra - orange, mango and heavy pineapple. Lots of pale malt sweetness in the form of honey and white bread. Clean, no alcohol or resin. Soft, sweeter than usual for OH. Malty, with lower bitterness and tons of mango-pineapple. Nelson is a distant second fiddle here to the citra and el dorado. Just a touch of spice, white grape and mineral from it. Not horribly too sweet, but still too sweet. Probably because the bitterness is so low.

Can from Harvest. Pours a hazy straw gold with a finger of white foam that lingers. Lovely tropical fruit aromas with lychee really standing out. Some dank gooseberry as it warms. Palate is very similar. Dry and dank on the finish. So good.

Draught in Philly: pours opaque orange with white head. Aroma is mango, spring onions. Taste is a little spring oniony, tangy, lightly bitter. Kind of thin.

Panda at home, thanks to Wingmane, 21/01/21. Hazed orange golden with a well presented off white covering. Nose is creamy malts, pine resin, melon, orange zest, spruce tips. Taste comprises bitter citric shreds, pine needle, guava, orange peel, mixed tropical fruits, grass. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, drying close spiked with lightly aggressive hop bitterness. Decent IPA ... quite the bitter number.
