Sweetish, juicy tropical fruity with some pineapple, citrus, grapefruit, grass, hints of herbal notes and bitterness. Solid.

Can from Brew Export. Aromas of pineapple, mango, peach, sweet citrus. Thick fruity flavours of pineapple, grapefruit, peach, papaya, juicy orange. Earthy citrusy linger. Mouth coating juicy fruity lightly bitter loveliness. Top stuff!

Panda thanks to Wingman. Hazy orange gold beer, small and short lived pale cream colour head. Light palate, mildly dry, a good fine minerally crispness. Light bodied pale malts, a nice light creamy sweetness. Crisp cooling pine and hop spice. Good broad spectrum hop fruits, well laced with a mild savoury skunk. Light crisp finish. Very quaffable.

Murky fruit smoothie orange topped with a lasting creamy white head.
Nose is stone fruit, mandarin, guava, pine resin, dank chimes.
Taste comprises ripe tropicana, hop spice, pine resin, guava, bitter orange, mandarin, ripe mango flesh.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spliced with juicy come resinous hop bitterness with a mellow rising boost.
Solid punchy DIPA.

SBS with Fear is the Enemy. A tad more citrus, creamier, nice balance.

Pours a bright orange, the color of fresh-squeezed orange juice, with a rather smallish head. Aroma is citrus and tropical fruit. Flavors follow. Soft mouthfeel. Mild hop bitterness in the finish. Textbook stuff.
