Poured from the tap @ Wills. Cloudy yellow with small white head. Citrus hops, less yeasty than IPA 1 (aka Ghost Farm). Decent, but not a standout.

Second brew of the night with a Nelson-Motueka combination (the other being Mille-Ïles Triple Néo-Zélandaise). Hazy golden-orange colour with a warm, off-white frothy-fluffy head, good retention and lots of sticky, foamy lacing left. The Nelson Sauvin comes out way more in this one with the grainy, white grapes notes and the tropical fruits from the Motueka in the base of the beer. Lemon peel comes out eventually. The citrus zest continues in the taste with milder tropical fruits and the Sauvignon Blanc touch. A really nice, refreshing Pale Ale with the Nelson Sauvin hops shining nicely.

Last Wills of the night, pouring a hazy golden-orange colour with a frothy, warm off-white head, good retention and leaving lacing cloudy streaks. Seems like the Citra is taking over the Nelson Sauvin in the one, but still pretty good. Citrus aromas with lemon zest and orange juice. The citrus juices continue into the flavours, but a bit of the white grapes do come out a touch. Some alcohol warms up a bit the mouthfeel. Decent bitterness, lots of citrus and very refreshing for a Double IPA with a tad Nelson Sauvin.
