Can to tulip.
Appearance: a full on wonderful opaque orange color with a two finger white foamy head, slowly dissipates to leave some light lace
Aroma: magnificent blend of Nelson hops to clean malts
Flavor: bittersweet juiciness, well blended to balance thoroughly
Texture: creamy and smooth, medium bodied, clean brisk finish of the Nelson hops
Overall: a fully loveable NEDIPA that I would love to have again!

Tangerine and lime. Nelson vibes aren't super strong here. More lemon on the finish. Hazy yellow pour with decent head and lacing. Light green onion in the finish. Can.

Can (2/12/25) from trade with CLW--thanks, Chris! Cloudy light brown-dark yellow with light floaties, nice head with excellent retention and nice lacing. Aroma is strong cooking herb, grape, cracker. Taste is strong citrus, grape, herb. Smooth, creamy texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Wish this was more grape-y Nelson than herbal Nelson.

Brewer's Tap draught, 3/19/25.
Moderately-to-heavily hazy, dull bronze-maize-golden. Small, white head.
Juicy, round and fruity with hints of spicy Nelson and light white grape. Hint of mineral and very low acidity with big biscuit and white bread-like malts. Very clean with no twang.
Juicy and moderately spicy with big white wine, tangelo and light peach. Biscuit and honey-like malts are pretty well-attenuated. Very competent across the board but doesn't quite take Nelson to the level it can be at.

16 oz can. The aroma has minimal white grape, straw, yeast. Flavor and lean slightly more earthy. I guess a little bit of white grape is there. Maybe a touch too much malt to let the hop shine. Ends sweet.
