Panda from Colin. Cheers. Hazy dark gold. Foamy white head. Aroma is initially fruity, sweet, with a sour herbal and slightly vinous edge. Flavourwise it's bitter with a sour edge. Underlying fruit sweetness. Light-medium bodied. Slick to creamy. Soft carbonation. Long dry somewhat astringent finish. Yep.

Can from The Beerhive. Hazy golden body with a thin off-white head. Steady carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of pineapple, white bread and mango. Flavour of pine, pineapple and salted orange. Medium body with a smooth texture. Soft fizz. This is delicious and hoppy although I think if it was slightly stronger it would have been even better.
