A recipe that's been with us from the very start. Layers of orange peel and juicy grapefruit, a smooth bitterness and top notes of pine, refreshing apricot and passion fruit; this is a perfectly balanced session beer.
NOTE: this beer was originally branded as one of Left Handed Giant's from 2017-2020, at which point it was switched to LHG Brewpub as it became their house beer. From 2024 it has been brought back to the main Left Handed Giant brand.

Can from Lupe Pintos. Hazy golden body with a white head. Lively carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of orange barley and lemon. Flavour of pineapple and peach. Thin to medium body with a slick mouthfeel. Soft fizz. An easy drinking, well rounded hoppy pale.

Panda courtesy of mR_fr0g, cheers Fergus! Slightly hazed golden colour, bubbly white foam head and aroma of citrus zest, stone fruit hint, hops. Taste is malt, wheat grain, oats, juicy fruits, citrus, with hop bitterness. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, dry hoppy bitter finish. Nicely drinkable.

Half-pint, draught at Thomas Tallis Alehouse. Shared with Finn. Cloudy golden body, lacing rings from a fair white head. Rip fruity nose, grassy. hop fruity taste with moments of peaches, grass, and citrus. Mid-sweet fruity ending. Easy to drink. Just alright. (Canterbury 11.02.2023).
