Call me an idiot, but tasting Nelson Sauvin at FG fresh from the fermenter, this fucker really does taste like a warm glass of Sauv Blanc!

Interesting, cant wait for this to get 4 weeks older.

**** me! I see where the name comes from. Nice hop. Only used as a 20g 15 mi addition, and a 20g 0 min addition, chilled on a 23L US wheat. Waimea 15gm 60min add, really promising. tastes ******* great out of fermenter, but I am just shocked at how it really does taste like a Sauv Blanc.

Call me a moron, but wow, unmistakeable.
 
Can see how it could turn into cat piss quickly (i think NickJD warned me?), cause of the sharp green grass vinegar-pine edge, - classic sauv blanc failing in wine terms. Get it now.

Still, likey likey. Nice aroma still at my adds.
 
Easy, Tiger.
 
Step awaaay from the keyboard and drink a glass of water mate. :ph34r:
 
sorry, had a few too many, too many graveyard shitfts and i getting excited by fermenter tastings... hahaha
 
Why would you want to delete it? It's great reading a post the day after the night before and thinking "**** me, did I really do that?"... :lol:
