Panda from Colin Bois. Hazy orange. Foamy white head. Aroma has citrus and sweet dtone fuit with a herbal and vinous streak. Flavourwise it has canned fruit sweetness combined with resin. Peripheral vinous sourness. Underlying chalky malts. Thick. Slick to creamy. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry somewhat astringent finish. Good stuff for sure.

500ml can. Pours a murky golden orange with a white head. Aroma of overripe peaches, tropical fruits. Taste of sweet overripe peaches, apricot, papaya, pineapple, very low bitterness. Full bodied. Another great addition to the series yet still doesn't beat the OG Citra one for me.

Can. Hazy gold beer, good and refreshingly persistent pale cream colour head. Airy smooth palate, a very mild dryness, decent fine minerally carbonation. Soft airy pale malts, a mild creamy sweetness, suits this dipa. Right then, Nectaron hops as delivered by this rather splendid single hop series. Light juicy stone fruits and light cooling pine. There is a mild floral peach and mild plum and Nectarine. A mild hop spice bite. Light smooth finish. Hmmm, was expecting a little more hop richness given the general punchiness of this series but, maybe this is Nectaron laid bare. Certainly hop fruity and very much stone fruits with a mild side serving of citrus. Honeyish stone fruits on the vlose.Yeah, one of those dipa that doesn't immediately grab but, slowly seduces with its goodness. Very nicely stone fruits and juicy. A real grower.

Can from Caledonian Craft Beer Merchant. Milky golden body with a thick off-white head. No visible carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of lemon sponge and nectarine. Flavour of peach, pineapple yoghurt and orange cream. Medium body with a smooth mouthfeel. Soft fizz. A creamy and punchy DIPA, lovely stuff.
