Cask at gbbf 2022 day 1. A clear amber copper reddy coloured pour with a halo of white head. Aroma is nutty, earthy chocolate, hazelnut, some booze,. Hazelnut. Flavour is composed of si sweet, oily, hazelnut, chocolate, truffle, praline, raisin, palate is semi sweet, oily, moderate carbonation.

16 oz. can. Date: 05/03/22. Aroma is mild citrus and soft malt. In the flavor of the citrus is upfront with the Nelson herbal and in the background. Pretty easy drinking. Was hoping for more of the white grape character from the Nelson.

On tap as part of a flight at True West Brewery. Appearance is hazy yellow with light sparkle, thin cap of off white head with good retention and nice lacing. Aroma is subtle wheat. Taste is strong wheat, coriander and mild tart fruit. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with smooth, frothy texture average-to-lively carbonation and dry finish as taste. Overall, good strength of taste and representative of the style. A bit frothy and carbonation is too lively.

16 oz can. Dated: 12-13-21. Aroma shows weak fruit with decent amount of pine. Thankfully the flavor shows no resin. But again pine dominates over citrus. Lower bitterness. Extremely old school.

Can thanks to Don. Pours golden with frothy white head that lasts. The aroma is corn malt and citrus. Medium body, wheat, pale malt, light crisp finish, very good.

Very clear copper coloured body with a thin, off-white head that leaves a thin lace on the sides. Aroma of crisp grass with a light bite of alcohol, cleanser, herbal notes and some flowers, with a minimal sweetness. Medium-bodied; Strong rich astringent malts dominate up front, with a grassiness that's dry, but fairly pervasive with a crisp citrus and cleanser element and some slight sweetness, but fairly minimal. Aftertaste shows the pungent, astringent quality with a nice, crisp, very bitter hop note, but soft enough to be easy-ish drinking with some nice malt body that is balanced, however very pungent and one-dimensional, with a pungent bite, but still nice and reminiscent of IPAs of old. Overall, a crisp, astringent and very bittered IPA with a cleanser and citrus bite, but nothing too complex. Nice to try and robust - just like the East Coast Imperial IPAs from the mid 2000s! Nice, but without complexity - this one was nice to sample fresh-ish! I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Whole Foods in New York (Union Square, 14th Street), New York on 02-May-2021 for US$4,99, canned on 28-September-2020, sampled at my house here in Washington on 08-June-2021.
