To say that the ordeal to get the latest darling of the brewing industry Nectaron over to Polly’s HQ was worth the wait would be an understatement. This hop variety was nearly eight months in the ether before it finally landed with us due to its high demand, and we instantly understood why when we opened up the first bag on arrival. Almost too potent for its own good, we’ve learned with our limited usage of this hop up to now that it works nicely as a single hop beer, but absolutely sings from the heavens when paired up with a high-alpha hop - in the case of Reinventing Fear, a variety that has been interwoven throughout our existence in Citra. Positively bursting at the seams with punchy citrus notes of lime and lemon before a tidal wave of intense pineapple, passionfruit and stonefruit sweetness takes over the palate - a positively Polly’s IPA.

Can from Kihoskh drunk at home (12/07/2024) - Intense juicy fruity with big hits of mango and passionfruit, some citrus pomelo and tangerine washing in, pineapple and some peach surfacing, semi sweet creamy malty backbone, balanced bitter hoppy finish. Not had a Polly brew for ages, this is quality.

Can. Hazy whiteish gold beer, small bubbly off white head. Airy palate, semi dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. Light smooth pale malts, a nice light sweetness. The Citra Nectaron combo start surprisingly skunky. A little hop spice and then a fair dose of cooling pine. Back end brings some of the expected hop fruit goodness, bright orange and tangerine and a light touch of stone fruits. Light and semi dry finish. Initially I thought this was going to be too green hop for me but, as the palate adjusts it opens up. Tidy.

Can at home shared at tasting. Hazy pale yellow color, small white head. Smell and taste lightly malts, hops, sweetish hoppy, sweet tropical fruit. Hmm not bad.
