NEST was built with copious amounts of wheat and oats to give it incredible foam and latte mouthfeel. We threw the hop closet at this beer to get the aromatics higher than a Georgia pine. NEST was hopped in the whirlpool and fermenter with Azzaca, Citra, Simcoe, Chinook, Mosaic, and a touch of Citra cryo for good measure. Its got fruitiness, dankness, pine-ness, guava-ness, green strawberry-ness + a lot of other ness’s going on in the aroma. A NEST of confusion…

Had Nest poured from pint can, bottom stamped (apparently) canned on "05/19/2022," brought from Cali. by my little bro., into nonic pint.
Pours orange juice hazy, with huge, creamy off-white head, with excellent retention, leaving thick rings of lace down the glass. Mild malt aroma off pour, then some citrus, pine (resin) and dank aromas, and getting more fruity as warms, including sweet and tangy berry aromas, but it's difficult to fix the aromas in this kitchen sink of a beer. Begins sweet fruit over nice carbonation bite, then nicely dank, with a chewy, creamy malt body beneath, before some sharp even bitter fruits lead into a little pine resin, and finally a very drying and crisp rather than bitter finish.
The brewer admits throwing the hop closet at this beer created a nest of confusion. Who am I to argue? Some of these kinds of beers come together seamlessly, others are like a salad made with everything green or leafy. Nest is one of the latter, but I usually like those.
