Growler from LCB. Mostly clear light pink, brief white swirl. Aroma of rhubarb and custard with some drying apple and peel in the background. Taste as expected. Its sweet but not overly so for the style. There is a slightly rich dessert quality to it but the light slick body turns this into a very tasty palate cleanser if ever there was one. Nice.

Panda from LCB. Pours clear rhubarb pink with no head. Aroma: sweet, rhubarb, mellow apple, vanilla, custard. Taste: moderate to heavy sweet, follows the aroma. Nice flavours, but loads to sweet for me.

Two pint take out from the Bree Louise from a 20 litre bag-in-box (bought on Thursday and ejoyed first pour of this at home today to toast the pubs last trading day before closing). Poured pale gold with an amber tint, almost clear, and with a small bubbly short lasting white head. Aroma of rhubarb and vanilla custard, with light toffee apple notes. Very sweet with just the faintest sour. Medium body, oily and watery texture, flat carbonation. Not sure it needed to be quite this sweet but that aside pretty decent.
