Classic, crisp IPA. Lots of hops and a bitter finish. Totally tubular!

Festival sample, Sørlandets Matfestival 2023. Clear golden under a white head. Fresh hoppy aroma with citric fruit, grapefruit, grapes, peach and tropical fruits. Taste is malt, mild biscuit, citric fruit, peach, apricot, grape, orange marmalade and citric zest. Medium bitterness. Medium body and refreshing aftertaste. Nice IPA in the crossing between classic and juicy without being either.

Panda at home, thanks to Fergus, 28/11/22. Pressure Drop Rate #100. Almost clear golden orange with a good sized white cap that escapes edgewards in time. Nose is bitter orange, grass, pine nip, toasted malts, melon, light breads. Taste comprises light candied orange peel, grass, pine needle, grapefruit, juicy tropical fruits, crisp malts, orange wine gums. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a balanced spike if light juicy come resinous hop bitterness. Decent enough West Coast take off.

Can at home in Hackney - sourced from the Experiment. Pours clear gold with a small, creamy white head. Moderate sweetness, some mellow pine, white grape, a bit of citrus, rindy bitterness, pale bread, perhaps strawberry. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Mildly resinous to finish. Not bad.
