473ml can. Hazy, dark yellow-ish, golden colour with average to huge, frothy to creamy, slowly osteoporosing, minimally resettling, moderately lacing, white head. Slightly condensed, not overly intense, tropical fruity and slightly citrusy fruity, hoppy aroma, oaty and wheaty malty background, notes of passion fruit, some mango, a touch of sweet orange, a minimally perfumed touch of kumquat. Taste is zesty, bitter, citrusy fruity, minimally piney and tropical fruity hoppy, chewy oaty and wheaty malty basis, notes of grapefruit, grapefruit peel, a touch of mango and orange; almost plaster-like, dry (water-priming), oaty finish.
Chewy texture, slightly dry palate, medium, dense, prickly carbonation.
Slightly strange mouthfeel, as if powdered oat flakes were used to compound a kind of plaster; and the fruity hop flavours getting more and more stuck (and thus ineffective) as the material becomes touch dry - OK, not more.

Panda thanks to Wingman. Hazy gold beer, small and short lived bubbly pale cream colour head. Airy palate, mildly dry, good superfine minerally carbonation. Somewhat thin bodied pale malts but, a fair old creamy sweetness. Soft cooling pine. Ripe citrus. A little hop spice. Touch of ripe tropical fruits. Smooth finish. Fine, lacks and real vibrancy for me.

Panda at home, thanks to the Wingmane, 17/11/2025.
Hazed orange with a just off white cap that thins to a swirl.
Nose is orange peel, grass, melon, pineapple, trace of herb.
Taste comprises airy malts, grapefruit, grass, pineapple, melon.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spiked with light juicy come grassy hop bitterness.
Okay IPA but nothing I'd look to revisit.

16oz can pours out hazy golden topped with a white head. Nose is a mix of dank notes and over ripe tropical fruit. Taste is more of the nice sweet over ripe fruit notes and a juice dank kick
