Notes

Fermented over a period of seven days under pressure at 25C and 25 PSI.

First tasting: Very well rounded aroma with mostly tropical fruits and a bit of apricot coming through. Nice body and mouth feel, very smooth. Low bittering but plenty of hop flavour. Very full tasting beer with nice malt tones offset by really distinctive tropical fruit flavours. Mango, passionfruit, pineapple, guava and some apricot in the background.

My first brew using nectaron. I brewed a smash to get a good appreciation for Nectaron's qualities, not dissapointed at all. Will definitely be using this hop in more brews.
