440ml can @ Benzai's Anti-Carnival Valentine's Day Tasting, Feb 26. Drunk listening to Metallica, for a reason I couldn't quite ascertain. Slightly unclear golden yellow pour, loose bubbles atop. Juicy grapefruit, citrus orange, lemon cake.. light bodied.. a bit airy.. for a novelty band beer it's not bad at all.

Thin spotty beige head on a hazy dull golden coloured body.
Muted citrus aroma.
Medium bodied, soft with a lightly carbonated cloying back.
Melon, chalky, citrus & grapefruit tastes with a bitter finish.
Nice enough.
gave a cheers!

Can shared at Anti-Carnavalstasting 2026. A bit hazy pale yellow color, small white head. Aroma and flavor are wheat, a bit odd, dishwasher water, butter. Meh, not a fan.

Panda at home, thanks to Mark the Bearded Avenger, 25/01/2026.
Moderately hazed orange to golden topped with an off white cap that thins to a swirl.
Nose is mellow citric zest, grass, orange, melon, soft malts.
Taste comprises big soapy notes, not good, grass, tangerine.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close.
Not good ... struggled to take down more than half a panda ... Cussons fest!

Can from Tesco, Brooklands. Hazy pale orange. Foamy white head soon becomes predominantly a bald spot. Aroma has low key but tart citrus. Underlying damp malts. Flavourwise it's also low key. Tart bitter citrus over a drop of sweet stone fruit. Underlying hints of malts. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry somewhat astringent finish. Typically limp SIPA. They've attempted to accentuate the hops but just ended up with one-noted tartness.

Hazy gold with a bubbly / frothy white head and a mellow tropical fruit salad aroma. Pretty fizzy, fruity with grapefruit bitterness, some resinous pine, a touch of chewy, grassy malt and a dry bittersweet finish.

440ml can from Tesco Extra in Chesterfield - cloudy gold body with no real head. A bit thin in texture, usual hoppy citrus and pine IPA character, little grassiness in the finish.
