Combining the sophistication of aged port with the audacity of alcopops through ludicrous fruiting levels. This cocktail inspired beer is so silly, it just got serious!

Panda at home, thanks to the Wingmane, 13/03/21. Light cherry red with a crimson cap that dissipate to spotting. Nose is tangy red berries, blackcurrant crumble, boysenberry, lactic notes, funk, damp cloth. Taste comprises sharp berries, blackcurrant yoghurt, berry pips, wood must, mellow acidic bimble, tarte berry compote. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a balanced acidic rise and resulting pucker. Decent red berry sour ... comes in below the stated 8% ABV.
