Vibrant, milky yellow haze. Smell is aloe, gooseberry, grapefruit, white wine (f*ck yesss) and faint, bready malt. Taste follows w/ additional hints of grape and passion fruit. Mouthfeel is prickly w/ medium carbonation and a peppery, astringent finish. I would have preferred a chewier element on the palate, but overall, this is an excellent, judicious use of Nelson. It's on fire.

Sweet tropical hoppy, slightly malty, white wine grape, and prominent Nelson-dank nose on this one!
Taste follows with a murky-soft, grapefruit citrus, and a hoppy-dank bitter swallow...the hop expression and finish fell just a little bit short on the backend. But, I'm nitpicking a bit as this is a really good use of Nelson.
Great color...soft on the palate...this just needed a little more Nelson kick to finish it off. This is still outstanding!
