Panda at home, thanks to Kenneth, 12/03/2026.
Clear golden blonde topped with a white cap that thins to a central but healthy swirl.
Nose is pale malts, grass, melon, tangerine, light breads.
Taste comprises orange zest, breads, citric tinged straw, melon, papaya.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spiked with grassy hop bitterness.
Okay pale but lacked the NZ hop punch I craved.

Can. RIP Phantom. Near clear paleish gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Light palate, mildly dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Thin bodied pale malts, ephemeral. Good cooling pine into thin but bright hop fruits. Tastes like NS to me but, there is a little citrus and stone fruits, set waaaaay back. Crisp finish. Bright and drinkable. Perfect hot day session beer.
