A Note on This Beer
- “Holy smokes - this batch of Nelson is phenomenal. Go get it!” @P.M.
- “One of the best Nelson Sauvin hopped IPAs I’ve had.” @Gerardo A.
- “No one is doing it better right now.” @Brad G.
Nelson Sauvin is a “go big or go home” kind of hop. This New Zealand variety unleashes a wide range of bold flavors, from juicy lychee and sweet mango to spicy black pepper and crisp white wine.
That’s why the experts at BeerConnoisseur.com say it’s “very polarizing...Hop lovers can be dazzled, but the unsuspecting drinker may find its juicy bouquet overwhelming.”
Well friends, we dare you to dive into today’s Poetic Hustler from Mikerphone Brewing to see what side you fall on!
Mikerphone Brewing lets Nelson Sauvin shine in all its glory. At first sip, a wave of smooth orange, sweet white grape, and drippy lychee tropical pithiness washes over the tongue. Each swig finishes crisp and clean, with notes of Sauvignon Blanc.
Nelson Sauvin isn’t for those who prefer mild and predictable flavor combinations. But, if you’re craving a tasty adventure, buckle up for this crushable 8% ABV whirlwind.
*The Chicago Tribune calls Mikerphone “the hottest thing in Chicago beer.”
