Made this back in November and just got one bottle left now - it's a great lowish ABV, very pale ale with fresh zingy NZ hops. Drinks really well, light and refreshing. I split the batch and fermented half with WLP006 Bedford Ale and half with Wyeast 1469, Yorkshire ale. I think I prefer the WLP006 version, this is a great yeast IMO, both malt and hops are allowed to do their business. If you can't get Nelson hops, try Green Bullet or Simcoe. I got 80% efficiency, you may need to adjust grain for your efficiency.
