Panda thanks to Cloin. Hazy orange gold beer, decent bubbly pale cream colour head. Palate is light and airy, a very mild dryness, decent fine carbonation. Light sweet malts, a trace, a bare whisper really, of milk underneath the creamy sweetness. Hops bring light smooth pine and mild nibbly hop spice. Mildly tangy but reasonably bright citrus hop fruits. Something tropical in the mid but hard to identify, possibly well disguised Cashmere melon. Finishes light and hop juicy fruity with the hop spice getting a little stronger. Very crushable dipa.

473ml can. Murky golden, white head. Aroma of tropical fruits, lime, grapefruit. Taste is very tropical, pineapple, grapefruit, lime, mango, little bit of hop burn in the finish but can't fault the flavours here. Medium bodied, a bit fizzy - heavier than expected on carbonation
