Oakes (30640) - Richmond, British Columbia, CANADA - SEP 2, 2023UPDATED: SEP 2, 2023 Opaque and pale. On the palate it’s meaty like beef jerky sort of thing. Lightly tart. But that meaty autolysis thing just isn't for me.
hopdog (24810) - Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA - MAR 20, 2023UPDATED: MAR 20, 2023 On tap. Poured a cloudy golden color with a medium sized head. Funky, tart fruits, citrus, lighter spices, oaky, grapes, and clean and refreshing.
ClarkVV (13401) - Boston, Massachusetts, USA - SEP 29, 2022UPDATED: SEP 29, 2022 750mL bottled April 2022, drunk 9/29/22.
Massive head takes a while to recede, before I can pour fully. Moderate haze, perhaps I've stirred up sediment by accident? Bronze-canteloupe. Off-white head.
Big mineral, light oak, bready, lightly tart and yeasty with soft citrus and coriander. Nelson contributes only some minor tropical notes and mineral, but it's still outstanding. Really wacky and interesting nose with melon, perhaps, and other boisterous, yellow fruits. Maybe a touch of metal. No flaw or alcohol noted.
Wow the flavor is very different than the nose. Much more austere and Nelson-influenced, with much more dryness than expected. Tart, maybe moderately sour at most, with great hop bitterness in balance with moderate lactic and brett acidity. Soft, malty texture with tannin and very high attenuation, yet still balanced and even lightly juicy on the finish. Not any great influence of the sea salt or coriander. Really lovely, balanced stuff with an absolutely divine and delicate Nelson expression that complements the other parts of the beer.
