Panda at home, thanks to Danlo ... cheers Ed, 04/10/22. Reddish dark amber with a moderate crimson cap that veers edgewards. Nose is big on raspberry and berry fruits, mellow apple, sugars, straw. Taste comprises much sweeter berries, raspberry, hint of lime, sugars, modest apple presnce. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Passable fruit cider ... the nose suggested a more bitter affair but the flavour soon ran too sweet for my liking.

Taste is sweet, raspberry, berry fruits, jammy, with apple, juicy, fruity, some acidity and slight hint of lime. Medium bodied, light carbonation, very sweet & tart finish. Quite drinkable.

500ml bottle @ Nando's Telford Southwater before watching 1917. Pours clear purple, vivid raspberry nose. Taste presents a gripping raspberry dominance, pips and all, not much lime coming through though. Good fruity number, but does not taste alcoholic at all. To some, that requires a few points taken off. But I quite liked it.
