Panda thanks to Sir Theydon of Bois. Hazy orange gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Palate is light, semi dry and has decent fine carbonation. Thinnish malts provide an adequate creamy sweetness. The old school hops bring light crisp pine into a fairly rich but soft grassy skunk that gives way to ripe citrus on the back end. Ripe grapefruit, orange and tangerine. Just a touch of brighter citric hop before a light semi dry finish. Definitely old school this one but hangs together well and goes down easy.

Can at home, picked up in Virginia somewhere, 11/07/23. Moderately hazed golden orange with a good sized lasting white cap. Nose is orange zest, grass, crisp malts, lemon rind, melon, papaya. Taste comprises orange pith, mandarin, grass, airy malts, grapefruit, light pine flicker. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spiked with grassy come lightly juicy hop bitterness. Decent enough old skool leaning DIPA ... this one grew on me as I drank it.
