Draught @ Abraxas. Light amber and cloudy. Thin head. The aroma has lots of fresh pale malt. Fairly sweet and a little cloying/doughy. So overall the thickness is maybe a bit much and the sauvin a bit mellow but I like it.

Pours crisp golden with frothy white head. Grass and spices in the nose with certain citrus touch. Refreshing but a bit flat in flavour with light sweetness, lightly bitter, medium sourness. Light body, oily feel, soft carbonation and astringent finish. What happen here? I was expecting more flavour, aroma and some more character overall with the Nelson Sauvin hop. Regular.

Bottle at Schouskjelleren shared with Daje
Pours pale hazy with a massive head. Smells of banana, yeast esters, wheat and some hints of citrus. Wheat flavor, fruity, nice sweetness. Nice hop bitter finish. Still i don’t feel that the nelson shines as much as it could have. A very nice beer, big bottle though.
