Half-pint, draught at Fallen Acorn Brewery. Shared with Finn. Hazy orange coloured body under a beige head leaving crocheted lacing on the glass. Citrus and some dark fruits on the nose, promising. Quite well blended taste of grapefruit, apricot, and mild-malty sweetness. A piney touch to a satisfying bitter ending. Fine depth. Like it. (Gosport 19.10.2022).

Fra fat på Craft Beer Co i Covent Garden, med Egil: lett uklar gylden med fint skum som varer helt ned. Skarp citrus, bitterappelsiner, lime, appelsinmarmelade, granskudd og deilig maltsmak attpåtil. Saftige appelsiner i avslutningen og allikevel crisp as a cracker.

Can ordered from Twisted Crow, Basingstoke. Aroma had harsh grapefruit and pine, with underlying grains. Opaque amber. Thick fluffy foamy white head. Very bitter. Matches the aroma. The pine is amped up. Again, it's harsh. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Average-fizzy carbonation. Long dry and particularly astringent finish. Raw. Harsh. But at least it's not twigwater.

Panda at home, thanks to SHIG, 10/01/21. Clear golden amber with a decent lasting white head. Nose is caramel malts, orange peel, sweet melon, citric tinged straw. Taste comprises orange peel, old skool vibes, caramel, melon, light grapefruit. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with moderate and balanced hop bitterness. Passable IPA ... more akin to a Mom and Pop brewpub formulaic affair - circa 2005, than something that has a place in 2021!
