Citra and Mosaic Incognito and Galaxy Spectrum pour in like liquid gold and bring tropical fruit bowl flavours to the table. Juicy base notes of mango, sweet and soft peaches with bright bursts of tangerine and a dank, sticky finish.

Panda at home, thanks to Fergus, 29/01/23. Almost clear golden orange with a decent white cap that stays for the show. Nose is soft malts, light pine needle, hint of stoned fruits, melon, grass, hop spice. Taste comprises orange pith, grapefruit, soft malts, pine nip, grass, melon, papaya, toasted malts. Medium bodied, fine massaging carbonation, semi drying close splashed with balanced juicy come lightly resinous hop bitterness. Decent enough easy drinking DIPA.

Op tap bij The Scrapyard. Troebelgele kleur, witte kraag. Zoet, mango, perzik, wat citroen, zoete citroensnoepjes, hopping, licht grassig, vrijwel geen bitterheid. Lekker, maar behoorlijk zoet.

Can picked up from Kihoskh and drunk at home - hazy golden orange with a white head. Bright vibrant juicy fruity with lots of tangerine and grapefruit, some papaya and peachy notes, citrus rinds and some hop spice bite, sweetish malty backing, balanced bitter hoppy close. Very nice.

0,44l can from Pien Webshop Advent calendar, #3. Canned 24.8.2022, bbe 24.2.2023. Beautiful dark yellow hazy beer with good and cloudy white head. Aroma has citrusy and grapefruit notes and some hops. Flavor has same elements with some grassy notes and not much bitterness. Smooth. Bit too old maybe.
