The first 2026 addition of the Really Silly DIPAs. This is one of those beers that costs so much to make that it’s purely for fun and not a beer made with my financial head screwed on. Completely saturated in the most intense hops the world grows. Using that USA DIPA method of overstepping what’s drinkable. This time with Nectaron leading the charge.

Panda thanks to Cloin. Hazy gold beer, a decent bubbly pale cream colour head. Light palate, a mild dryness, decent fine minerally carbonation. Slightly thin bodied pale malts bring a light creamy sweetness. Bright cooling pine hops into light savoury skunk and light but juicy hop fruits, slightly ripe citrus and stone fruits in equal measure. Light finish. Pretty quaffable but didn't strike me as that Nectaron.

Can from The Beerhive. Hazy golden body with a thick off-whose head. Low carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of peach and dried mango. Flavour of honey, mango and a peppery hop finish. Medium to full body with a smooth mouthfeel. Soft fizz. Massively hopped and very enjoyable to drink.
