Sensory Description:

This lush, hazy IPA delivers an intensely aromatic bouquet that brims with juicy fruit, pineapple, and a playful bubble gum edge. The mouthfeel is rich and smooth, thanks to the malted wheat and flaked oats, while the single-varietal Nelson hop lends bold tropical notes, subtle white wine character, and a polished bitterness that never overwhelms. The finish is clean, creamy, and satisfyingly hoppy.

Brewer's Background:

Founded in 2013 by Troy Casey, Casey Brewing & Blending is a passion project rooted in old-world fermentation techniques and driven by a deep respect for local Colorado ingredients. Known for their mixed culture fermentations and oak barrel aging, the brewery has made a name for itself through its emphasis on unfiltered, bottle-conditioned beers that marry patience with complexity. Though best known for their wild ales and farmhouse styles, Casey’s ventures into the hazy IPA world, like 100 Nelson,  reflect the same commitment to quality, terroir, and artisan craftsmanship.

Serving Suggestions:

Serve 100 Nelson well-chilled, ideally between 45–50°F, in a tulip or nonic pint glass to capture its bold aromatics. Pair with spicy Thai green curry, grilled pineapple pork skewers, or a tangy goat cheese salad to enhance the beer’s tropical and citrusy dimensions.

With its vibrant hop expression and masterful construction, 100 Nelson proves that even the rarest ingredients can shine when handled with care, creativity, and intention.
