Bottled 14/02/13. An orange coloured beer with a little whitish head. Nice citrussy hops in the aroma. More peachy than anything. Same in the mouth. A good body with good flavours but it’s not typical Nelson Sauvin. Not as fresh as it should be so the hop notes have doubtless deteriorated but it’s still tasty.
