440ml can from Left Field Beer, Solihull and shared In Kuala Lumpur. Poured a hazy light yellow golden colour with a thin white head and some broken lace. The aroma is grainy, light tropical citrus. The flavour is moderate bitter, with a crisp, fresh, earthy, herbal, light citrus, woody hop bitter palate and a long bitter finish. Medium bodied with average to soft carbonation.

Panda at home, thanks to Kenneth, 22/08/2025.
Murky orange topped with an off white head that stays for the show.
Nose is orange zest, mandarin, pineapple, grass, mixed tropicana.
Taste comprises mandarin, papaya, melon, hint of mango, soft malts, pine nip.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spliced with juicy come lightly resinous hop bitterness allied to a mellow boost.
Tidy DIPA.

Can. A mild to medium haze on this yellowish gold beer, small and short lived bubbly pale cream colour head. Light palate, mildly dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Thin bodied pale malts, a thin but, typically Phantom forward creamy sweetness. Unusually for a Phantom brew, no hop info. Your not Cloudwater yet boys.... Good cooling pine. Floral peachy stone fruits. I'm gonna guess Peacharine and Nectaron with a C hop back filing. Light crisp fairly dry finish. Nice dipa.

Keg at Craft Beer Junction, Bermondsey, London. A hazy golden/orange coloured pour with a decent white head on top. Hoppy, citrus, orange, mango, tropical fruit taste/aroma. Decent enough DIPA.
