Pint can pours with an opaque mostly gold colored body that supports a near white head. The aroma offers up peach, guava, a lime like sensation and then a blend of cantaloupe and honeydew. The taste offers up soft mango to guava to cantaloupe and then a bit of sweet pineapple. To midway it does pick up slivers of citrus in an attempt to tamp down the rush of sweetness. In the end the sweet tropical notes just take over and do their best to bludgeon you with sweetness. All in all it is a bit too sweet but the sweetness doesn't build on itself.

Aromas are just turning hops, fruit variety with citrus dominating, malt and a hint of MJ. Flavors are similar to nose. Sweet very slightly dominates bitter and carbonation. A touch astringent. Finish follows flavors. Not bad not great.

Even though the canned on date is early February, the aromas are old hops. Flavors are similar to nose. Barely drinkable.

Can from Corti Bros. Pours hazy gold with a slight foamy white head. Aroma is tropical with a deal of citrus. Med body. Tropical and lightly sweet. Moderately bitter. Flavor is light pale malt supporting citrus, passion fruit, melon and more. More than I can parse. Pretty good flavor.

Aromas are lots of citrus with hints of MJ, malt and melon. Flavors are similar to nose, add in a touch of onion and on the sweet side with enough bitter and soft carbonation to balance. Pretty good but been done before.

16oz can from Tavour. Clear golden pour, foamy head recedes to thin layer. Aroma is fruity, tropical and floral. Taste is juicy, floral, tropical and slightly dank, resiny too. Kind of an oily feel the leads to a dry, chalky finish. The full character of Nelson on full display here
