Can at home from J and B Craft Drinks, cooking Hairy Bikers Caranitas and Smokey Mac and Cheese, 19th October 24. Been after this one for a while. Pours a hazy orange, aroma is grapes, gooseberries, spice, classic Nelson. Taste is Nelson saturated as expected, mellow, dank, earthy, spice, gooseberries and grapes and medium to high bitter. Classic DIPA, excellent stuff

16oz can pours a thick, pulpy orange with two big fingers of white head. This just smells like good beer. Big grape jelly and gooseberry nose, melon, herbs, perfume. Flavor has malt and oats and wheat, then orange and gooseberry and mango and grape. Nice. Real nice. Medium full bodied, just off dry. Very nicely made and crazy drinkable.

Why do restaurants leave the tail on the shrimp? I’m digging my hands into this getting them all sticky. It’s absurd.
Beer is really good. Nelson!!!

Shared draft with Steve at Armsby Abbey. Opaque dark yellow with nice head, excellent retention and nice lacing. Aroma is strong dank herbal with perhaps slight grape. Taste follows aroma. Smooth texture soft carbonation and dry finish as taste with light bitterness. Strong but not complex and the “danky” iteration of Nelson versus the more “grapey” version. Well made but not super enjoyable.

Can from the brewery. It pours hazy pale orange with a decent white head. The aroma is fresh, green, light weedy, bright tangerine, kumquat, solero, melon, white grape, gooseberry, sherbet abs refreshers. The taste is crisp, firmly dry, pleasant bitterness, fresh, vibrant, green, fresh piney goodness, orange peel, tangerine, apricot, kumquat, pithy, zesty, light marmalade, touch of spice, some green fruits, white grape and gooseberry with a dry finish. Medium body and fine to moderate carbonation. Exceptional balance and flavour. So classy. Exquisite.
