Panda at home, thanks to Kenneth, 28/01/2025.
Hazed orange amber with a big old lasting creamy white cap.
Nose is orange zest, grass, melon, papaya, grapefruit, soft malts.
Taste comprises orange peel, hint of mango, grapefruit, light bready notes, mandarin, just a touch of Riwaka but not as expressive as I would have liked.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spliced with balanced light juice laden hop bitterness.
Tidy enough IPA but not as good as Rivington's usual standards.

Can. A mild to medium haze on this gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Palate is light, mildly dry and, has a good fine minerally crispness. Light pale malts, a light creamy sweetness, whisper of grain in the aftertaste. Interesting hop combo! Delivering crisp pine, lemony citrus with a soft lime and a whisper of lemon. A mild hop spice nibble before the light and crispy finish. Normal Rivington quality. That'll be very good indeed then!

Third of a keg pint in the Boot on 16th December 2024. Hazed light orange body, off-white crust. Fruity, stone fruits mostly, piney hints and hop centric without being overly bitter. Liked it!
