16oz can from Tavour. Hazy yellow pour, patchy, fine head. Citrusy aroma, grapefruit peel. Taste is citrus, zesty, grapefruit with a faint floral edge. Tangy notes linger

16 oz can in a trade with tfontana. Thanks! Aroma is light with haystacks, white grape and herb. Flavor of hay, grape and herb is subdued. Seems a bit muddled. Dry chewy texture without any bitterness. It is ok.

Can (1/31/23) pour from Steve. It's a cloudy orange-light brown with tons of sparkle, finger-width foamy off-white head with good retention and nice lacing. Aroma is strong white grape, stone fruit and hint of dank herb. Taste follows aroma with minerals and bread. Mouthfeel is light side of light-to-medium bodied with smooth, frothy texture, average carbonation and finish as taste with lingering yeast and mild bitter. Overall, I get the comments about being sweet as there is a candied sweetness but I don't find it over the top. Surprisingly thin for the style--doesn't drink like 8.3%.

Canned 3/16/23, drunk 4/27/23. Moderately hazy. Small, white head, moderately-low retention. Certainly smells like Nelson. Big and mineralesque, with earth, white wine and such. Soft, juicy, fruity, wine-like and funky. Pretty up there for Nelson harvest this year. Certainly low on resin and sharp/hot pine. Sparse, cracker malts with white bread and such. In the mouth the Nelson continues. White wine, heavy funk, heavy mineral. Man, does PhillyBeer even taste more than a 1/10th of a sip? This is absolutely funky as hell Nelson. That said, he is surprisingly correct that it's too sweet. A shame, since this Nelson is killer. But yeah, just mega-sugar pretty much from the get-go and lingering throughout.

Pours murky mango into a tulip. Bright white conglomerate head with medium retention recedes leaving trailing sheets. Pineapple, lychee and mango aromas. Soft with mango, melon and papaya upfront turning sharp before the lasting earthy tropical fruit skin finish.

Grabbed a can from Crafted new brewery tick alert. Milky orange pour somewhat peachy in hue. Nose is vegetal and ripe citrus. Tastes of mango, peach, grapefruit, candy, green onion, green grapes, red bell pepper. Medium bodied.

Can at Paragon, 2/9/23. Hazy yellowish-orange, white head, strong lace. Bright, juicy, and very flavorful. White grape, melon, peach, and mango. Really liked this one.

16oz can pours a thiccc sunset orange with some clumpy white head. Nose has huge mango, melon and green grape. It's musty. The Nelson shines. Malt bill has some oat or lactose which lends to a full body. Mango and melon and peach ice cream. Off dry finish. 8 4 8 3 14
