Panda thanks to Wingman. A mild to medium haze on this gold beer, small and very short lived bubbly pale cream colour head. Airy palate, fairly dry, decent fine carbonation. Smooth light malts, a light and fairly dry creamy sweetness. Manilita delivers resinous red grapefruit and a soft pine. Tiny bit of black pepper. Airy dry finish. Nice single hop dipa but a tad over dry for my palate.

Can at home, from J and B Craft Drinks, Amsterdam, 25th October 25. Pours a deep hazy yellow orange. Aroma is earthy, but bright and dank. Taste is intense, grapefruity and delicious, tropical and pithy. Nice stuff

Peachy jawn. Finally settling in with the Phightens and Bravos.

Pours a hazy, orange-banana, with smallish head. Aroma is a bit muted, but there's note of chalk, some citrus and tropical fruit. Flavor is citrus and tropical fruit, with some astringency. Soft mouthfeel. Moderate hop bitterness in the finish.
