5-6% abv. Malted barley. Dry and light-bodied to better showcase the individuality of the hops in both aroma and flavour. A basic recipe is followed, with each batch utilising different hop varieties from around the world based on seasonality, availability, and the whims of the brewer.

500ml bottle, 5.4%. Murky orange, white head. Aroma is grassy and herbal, weedy, slightly vinous. Taste is the same very grassy and herbal with weedy dankness, not much of the vinous or gooseberry notes I expect from Nelson. Medium bodied. Decent but not my fave Pale from Kernel.

Bottle at 5% ABV. A very nice pale ale more than less as expected from this brewery. Looks good, slightly unclear with a fine, stable head making laces down my glass. Both aroma and taste are fresh and fruity with typical Nelson aroma and flavors. Fine balance, pale, tasty malt, decent bitterness and all over very refreshing. This is exactly what a pale ale is all about.

Bottle from The Curious Hop, Otley. Label says: Nelson Sauvin Pale Ale 5.4%. Pours a hazy amber/yellow colour with a huge thick creamy white head. Nice looking beer. Aromas of citrus fruits, grapefruit, lemon and orange zest with hints of pineapple. Taste has more citrus notes, light tropical notes, pine and a little spice. light bodied, fairly smooth mouthfeel and a citrus hoppy finish. The bitterness on the finish is not too harsh which i like and nicely balanced. Nice beer.
