Can pour into nonic pint glass from the brewery. Appearance is deeply hazy with tons of fine floatie particulates, mild sparkle, finger-width foamy off-white head with fair retention and nice soapy lacing. Aroma is candied sugar, orange, Taste is strong orange, cantaloupe, candied sugar. Palate is medium bodied with thick texture, soft-to-average carbonation and mostly sweet finish with light bitter balance. Overall, fairly juicy without the typical lemony citrus/tropical fruit/grapefruit triad. Fairly straightforward without a lot of nuance but enjoyable.

Can pour into nonic pint glass from the brewery. Appearance is opaque, murky yellow/light brown with tons of sparkle at the edges of the glass, some white floaties about, 2-finger width off-white foamy head with good retention and light leggy lacing. Aroma is mild citrus, stronger grape and white wine, hint of onion. Taste is white wine, mild herb and citrus. Palate is medium bodied with thick texture, average-to-lively carbonation, mild numbing of the lips, mild spiciness, and fairly dry finish as taste. Overall, the Nelson takes this off into a nice direction
