The HOP - Nelson Sauvin’s name is derived from the Sauvignon Blanc wine grape to which many agree has similar flavor and aroma characteristics. Developed in New Zealand and released in 2000, it is considered too wild for many major brewers. Despite this, Nelson Sauvin has found significant use among craft breweries and home brewers for its eccentric characteristics.
They variety has gained popularity in American-style Pale Ales but is definitely a hop that requires prudent and discerning application in brewing. Nelson Sauvin’s oil profile is complex and fortunately works well as an aroma hop, flavor hop and also for bittering. Low cohumulone is responsible for its smooth bittering qualities. It is descended from Smoothcone.
So cool it's a circa 1967 photo’. I’ve been looking for that one. It used to be available at the old forum. Bill is posed in a relaxed, catalogue-model style casually holding a garment. Does anyone have the full photo’ that they could post?
Luis Bar, Wakefield, West Yorkshire. I believe it's brewed by a local brewery called Fernandes and Luis Bar also belongs to them. It's a popular real ale bar.
