Panda pop thanks to Shig, supped a la home, 29/08/20. Almost clear golden orange with a decent off white head. Nose is tangerine, mango shreds, lychee, grass. Taste comprises grass, citric zest, papaya, lemon rind, toasted grains, melon. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close splashed with mellow hop bitterness. Not for a revisit but a passable sessionable pale.

21/8/2020. Bottle from Northumbrian Gifts. Pours clear bright pale gold with a large frothy white head. Aroma of citrus, lychee, mango, berries. Medium sweetness with light to moderate bitterness. Moderate body, slight creamy texture, foamy/fizzy carbonation. Most enjoyable of the 3 Holy Island beers we shared.
