Panda at home, thanks to Kenneth, 14/09/2025.
Murky orange topped with a lasting just off white cap.
Nose is orange pith, grass, grapefruit, melon.
Taste comprises bitter orange, grapefruit, grass, papaya.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying spiked with juicy come grassy hop bitterness.
Tidy enough pale but the hops aren't really delivering for me.

Can. A mild to medium haze on this yellow beer, small off white head. Light palate, fairly smooth, some dryness, good fine carbonation emerging late on. Smooth light pale malts, a good creamy sweetness, Phantom style. Soft cooling pine. Nice Peacharine delivery, soft floral peach very much evident. Nelson brings a mild but pleasing grape. Light finish. Cracking, 2nd impressive sipa on the trot from Phantom (the other ain't on Brewver yet). Ideal Sunday night brew when you know Monday is going to be a shit day at work. Very light alcohol wise but properly hoppy. Really well done for the style

440ml can from Left Field Beer, Solihull. Poured a murky yellow golden colour with a mostly lasting frothy white head. The aroma is grainy, light stone fruits, light tropical citrus. The flavour is moderate to light bitter, with a fresh, crisp, somewhat light, mango, light earthy mineral, light dry hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average to soft carbonation.
