Panda thanks to Wingman. Near clear gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Airy palate, semi dry, decent fine carbonation. Light pale malts, a light and pleasing creamy sweetness. Soft pine. Mild hop spice. Aussie hops (well hallo Topaz, long time no see!) bring a light but very pleasant broad spectrum hop fruitiness. Light and semi dry finish. Very easy drinking dipa.

Panda at home, thanks to Dave, 22/03/2025.
Murky orange topped with a light egg shell white cap that thins to the edge.
Nose is bitter tropical fruit esters, mango flesh, pine resin, guava, grapefruit.
Taste comprises orange pith, pine needle, raw pineapple, grass, guava, hop spice, hint of minerality.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spiked with danko come lightly resinous hop bitterness allied to a balanced rising boost.
Decent bitter leaning DIPA.

Bitter pine, quite fruity. Not what I was expecting. Sort of a hybrid of a WC/NE IPA beer. Very good.

Pours a hazy, lemon-banana yellow, with big, foamy head that dissipates rapidly, with nice lacing. Aroma is a bit chalky, but with citrus and tropical fruit in abundance. Flavor also has that touch of chalk, but is very juicy as well. Citrus and tropical fruit and just a touch of hoppy bitterness in the finish.
