Bottle from Drankenhandel Leiden. Aroma is mildly artificial grapefruit, pine, fruity hop, citrus, zesty fruit peel, light malt. Flavour is moderate bitter with a light sweetness. Medium body. Not bad, not over the top with flavoring and has some pleasant piney notes.

Sample, thanks to Grumbo. Shared with blackhaddock at our rare country / region mega tasting afternoon April 2022. Golden pour, solid white cap. Good grapefruit aroma, strong grapefruit profile, fuzzy mouthfeel, tangy finish. Some mild medicinal hints, but decent overall.

26th April 2022. Mega tasting with minutemat, pushing our countries, regions and brewery stats higher. 'Panda' via Grumbo. Old gold in colour, white head. Grapefruit aroma and taste, thought this was fine, my 5th South African beer on RateBeer.

Huge thanks to Erzengel for sharing! Bottle looks good. Beer in the glass with a small head. Fresh fruity aroma. Starts dry, hoppy, metallical background. Light touch of grapefruit. Not too intense. Finish mild, again malty-metallical. Okay.
