After far too long, we've decided its time to shine a light on one of our favourite hops, in one of our favourite series. Proper DIPA: Nelson is everything you'd hope it to be it takes the downright sticky sweet, chewy, soft body of our Proper DIPAs and adds a touch of class with notes of Gooseberry, White grape and a huge dank aroma to remind you what you're drinking

16th October 2024 Can. Hazy gold beer, decent bubbly pale cream colour head. Light palate, reasonably smooth and mildly dry, decent fine carbonation. Light smooth malts, a light creamy sweetness. 2024 Nelson hops in the hands of Cloudwater .. certainly a decent skunky streak and smooth cooling pine. Winey resinous grape and gooseberry? Mellow winey grape for sure, no resin and no gooseberry. Juicy tropical fruits late on. Overall a pretty decent showing for this hop these days.

Keg at CW unit 9 MCR, 04/10/24. Hazed orange with a good sized off white head that dissipates to a swirl. Nose is orange zest, grapefruit, pine nip, guava, light stone, mixed tropical fruit esters. Taste comprises grapefruit, pine needle, dank spike, grass, pineapple, mango, light hop spice. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spliced with juicy come resinous hop bitterness. Solid DIPA.
