Panda at home, thanks to Graham Grumbo, 04/02/24. Almost clear light chestnut brown to amber with a just off white head that veers edgewards. Nose is biscuit, toffee, dried fruit rinds, herb, brown bread. Taste comprises earthy fruits, toffee, vinous, hedgerow, nutty, brown bread, malty bite. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Tidy enough bitter. Nailed on this is a re-badge of Half Bore.

25/12/2023. Bottle courtesy of Painy's visit to the museum. Pours clear dark amber with a frothy off-white head. Attractive pour, though had to keep lots of bits in the bottle. Aroma is malty, caramel, toasted, fruity, hoppy, floral, chalky. Moderate sweetness, medium bitterness. Moderate body, a little foamy carbonation. It's not bad.

500ml bottle [courtesy of Grumbo - great label, thanks a lot!]. Clear, redd-ish, dark amber colour with average to huge, frothy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Mellow, slightly toasty, caramel malty and floral, slightly fruity, minimally leafy, hoppy aroma, hints of red berries, petals, a touch of tea; ephemeral fruitiness, the leafy flavours gain weight after a while. Taste is floral and slightly fruity, minimally leafy hoppy, minimally toasty, caramel malty basis with a biscuity touch, low residual sweetness, hints of petals, a touch of red berries, tea; minimally chalky finish. Minimally oily, watery texture, dry palate, medium, prickly carbonation. Well hopped, slightly overcarbonated - nice.
