Nova near Alpha Centauri

Well, I finally saw the nova (13H54m45s, -59.01) , which is just visible to the unaided eye, but much better in binoculars.
For me in the tropics, it was up at 4am, as Alpha does not rise here till the early hours.
I am interested in following any changes in colour.
How would others describe the colour? ( I am not saying what I thought, as I do not wish to sway others.)
