From a 6-pack picked up at Winco in Gresham, OR
12oz bottle poured into a Solera nonic pint
p- clear pale gold w/ a small white cap; quick recession
n- med nose of sweet, juicy nectarines; inviting
t- nectarines over lightly toasted grainy malt throughout; pleasant
mf- light-med bodied w/ med carb
o- not too shabby; simple, tasty, and drinkable; *edit: this one really grew on me as I drank through the rest of the 6-pack- a well-executed fruit beer, imo

Pours a straw color that is very clear, with a 1 finger head that has some lacing. Has a nice light mouthfeel with a slightly sweet tangerine taste. Aroma is tangerine/tropical. I'm not much of a fan of flavored fruit beers, but this one is really good. Probably my second favorite fruit flavored beer ever. 25 IBUs Rated 3-11-2021

Pours a light yellow with a light head and good carbonation. Aroma is citrus and fruity. It is a profile of nectarines. Taste is light and quite reminiscent of nectarines. ABV is quite lost. Mouthfeel is fruity, bitter and juicy.

Nectarine IPA!
Pours a glowing gold. Nice foaming. Pleasant aroma, with lots of juicy nectarine notes. The stonefruit blends nicely with the hop profile, although it punches higher—7.5 ABV—than I’d like for something as refreshing as this.

8/8/21...modestly hazy flat gold, touches of foam remain mostly in the rim. Heavy and hard nectarine nose like orange but sweeter. Peach like. The nose translates to the flavor - a fruit bomb. Soft bitter hangs out at the end, but not enough to steer the fruit. More bite please?

355 ml bottle, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. ABV is 7.5%. Slightly hazy pale golden colour, small white head. Aroma of peaches / nectarine, and artificial peach candy. The flavour is fruity and moderately sweet, notes of peaches and peach candy again, a moderate bitterness in the finish.

Poured from a 12 oz bottle.
Appearance is a murky golden not quite hazy looking body with some bright white bubbles.
Definitely smells of tangerines and citrus.
Taste is all about the tangerine, almost too much so. A touch too sweet and a light body.
Easy to drink, but after a couple...it's just a bit cloying. Not one I would really want again.

From a 12 fl. oz. can marked 09/27/21. Sampled Oct 29, 2021.
The pour is yellow-amber with a modest, lasting white head. Good clarity.
Aroma. Well, they promised nectarine and they is evident along with a crusty bread base,
Light-medium mouthfeel.
Sweet taste to start and then the nectarine flows in and takes things over. Refreshing, Crisp. Clean. I'm not big on this style but it is well done for what it is.

I really like this beer. The fruit is not overpowering and doesn't come off as syrupy at all which is what turns me off from other beers of this style. If you asked me what a nectarine tasted like I couldn't tell you I just know this beer has a peachy type taste that I really like. Hops, malt and fruit are all present but in a nice balance. Carbonation is perfect. This isn't necessarily something I would want to drink exclusively but it's a perfect addition to a sampler 12 pack.
