Look: Semi-hazy golden colour with reasonable white head. Nose: orange, grapefruit, light peach, herbs, light grassy-earthiness; quite inviting. Taste: This is one of those beers where the flavours seem subtle at first but slowly build up to a nice finish. Orange and strawberry, melon, hop spice, herbs, grassy finish. Palate: slightly resinous without much pine which helps the flavours build well. Fine carbonation.

21st November 2022; Shrewsbury Beer Share, five guys and loads of beer. 440ml can from Beer52, via me; BB 12th July 2023. Misty golden yellow body, white head. Hoppy, as you'd expect, bitter mostly with a fruity, citrusy front in both the aroma and taste.

Large foamy white head on a murky dull golden coloured body. Stone fruit, berry & bubble gum aroma. Medium bodied, foamy with a sticky back. Bubble gum, Haribos, stone fruit & light malt tastes with a tangy peppery finish. Standard.

[A 44cl can from Beer52.] A hazy pale amber pour with a tight, long lasting, off-white head; aroma of tangerine and pineapple; thick milkshake style body with tropical fruit flavours and some dark rye bread adding body; then a clean bitter grapefruit finish with obvious alcohol.

Panda at home, thanks to SHIG, 11/04/21. Almost clear golden orange with a good sized off white cap ... but if you're gonna call out your beer as Hay Zee without listing NE yeast then at least make an effort and murk it some up FFS ! Nose is orange zest, citric pith, refreshing tropical fruits, watermelon, light herb, grass, pink grapefruit. Taste comprises orange zest, grass, light weed, melon, mixed tropical fruit esters, light bubblegum. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close splashed with balanced juicy come lightly grassy hop bitterness. Not bad.

Medium plus sweetness and light bitterness. Medium body, slight creamy texture, soft carbonation. Earthy bitterness comes through to finish.

Can from Beer52. Lightly hazed gold with a white head. Pine, lime & spice up front. Melon pulp and kiwi come through. It's all quite low key, but enjoyable nevertheless.

330ml can shared with Blackhaddock back in July. A surplus of average Beer52 fridge fillers needed to be drunk. Light sulphur aroma, taste is light, gently hazy.. Entry level haze I guess, bit half arsed but not unpleasant.
