Double Dry Hopped Nelson + Wai-iti
Other Half Brewing - Center Street

 

A: The beer is very hazy whitish yellow in color. It poured with a quarter finger high white head that died down, leaving a thin collar around the edge and some lacing down the sides of the glass.
S: Moderate aromas of white grapes are present in the nose along with notes of passion fruit.
T: The taste follows the smell but has stronger flavors of passion fruit.
M: It feels medium-bodied and somewhat juicy on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: I really enjoyed the combination of aromas and flavors from the hops in this IPA.

Serving type: can

Cloudy pale yellow with two fingers of yellowed foam head. Rocky dissipation and thick soapy lacing.

Jungle-like aroma with white wine, passionfruit, black lime and some peppery herb.

Juicy, high quality cantaloupe, along with some light orange creamsicle and very peppery herb in the taste.

Relatively full bodied and soft feeling, with modest carbonation.

The pepperiness of it is a touch excessive to my taste, but the melon flavor is very impressive.
