Panda, courtesy of @SHIG, pours with a crystal clear slightly dull gold colored body that supports a fairly thin ring of white bubbles. The aroma offers up an assault of peach like notes that range from dried peach to Kool-Aid peach. Wow. The taste offers up an experience that strays a little more into the freshly cut fruit realm than the nose led onto. I do get a couple slices of peach fruit bleeding into a more extract to dried Kool-Aid mix fake fruitiness. This would make a nice 12% abv panty peeler if one was so inclined to brew such a thing.

Catching up on World Cup beers. I really, really enjoyed watching Saudi Arabia play, and the win against Argentina will always stick with me. Would’ve loved to see them advance from the group, shame they couldn’t.
