Chill out with this juicy refresher that's packed with heaps of hops to bring torrential tides of tropical flavor and a dab of dankness. Big tropical fruit punch aroma, light dank, and melon paired with clean, light malt character. Hop and yeast-driven fruity sweetness balanced with a bitterness that is laid back, leaving you care-less about IBU’s.

Panda at home, thanks to SHIG, 11/07/21. Moderate haze on an orange golden with a decent white cap. Nose is orange zest, grass, airy malts, melon, light spruce tips. Taste comprises tangerine, melon, grass, light pine nip, hint of bubblegum. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close splashed with balanced juicy hop bitterness. Decent enough straight up IPA.

On tap at Heritage HopHaus. Foggy light yellow orange pour. Coarse off white head. Hazy fruity aromas and flavors. Hoppy sure as a WC IPA should but decidedly NE and hazy. Low buttered and fresh floral tropical hop flavors

12 oz from work. Aroma is very faint at first with a suggestion of PacNw forest air and faint citrus peel. As it warms, it opens up, revealing notes of Hawaiian Punch and sweet bread. Pours hazy golden with a one+ finger bone-white head with excellent retention. Taste is light to moderately bitter with tropical fruit and sweet bready flavors; finishes a little dry. Pretty tasty.

Can from Total Wine in Folsom, CA. Pours translucent amber tinged gold with a light white head. Tropical aroma, dank notes, and very light caramel. Med body. Flavor is citrus/pine, earth, green melon, pink guava and passion fruit. Fairly towards dry. Fruity/hoppy/bitter. WC, but not NW. Good flavor, but not for the bitter freak.

Surprised this beer is labeled a West Coast IPA. Lots of melon and berry, with a little caramel, lemon drop, and pineapple thrown in for good measure. Hints of banana and coconut underneath. No bitterness whatsoever. Drinkable, but kind of a stylistic letdown from such a legendary Pacific coast brewery.
