Super hazy and chunky orange and light bronze coloured body, all with a very thick four to five centimetre tall frothy tan head that sits above a 90 per cent opaque glow. aroma of deep citrus fruits, mangoes, grass, hay and a decent amount of malts, alcohol and residual sugar. Medium-bodied; Fairly funky, cardboardie malt notes dominate with a bunch of aspartame and fake sugar flavours, some yeast, bread and grassy notes come through as well, but the hops and bitterness does make it's way through, after the funkiness subsides. Aftertaste is deep, rich and showing a bunch of two main things - citrus fruits, especially oranges and tangerines and a ton of aspartame and almost saccharin-level fake sugars with a horrible bitterness and pungency just from that alone. Overall, a decent, very orangey, citrusey but very bitter (from the fake sugars) funkiness and soapy/cardboardie malts hit as well. Decent to try, but not one of my favourites, from the brewery or the style. Great to have a New York beer here near the Pentagon on the eve of September 11th. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from MOM's Organic Market in Alexandria, Virginia on 06-September-2021 for US$3,99 sampled at my house here in Washington on 10-September-2021.

Panda 🐼 at home thanks to Wingman. A light hazed golden orange coloured pour with a lasting loose white head. Aroma is semi sweet, wheat, mellow dank, green, little veg, leafy hop. Flavour is composed of bitter grassy hop, dirty pine, leafy hop, lemon rind, firm bitterness. Palate is grainy, grassy,spritzy carbonation. Fine.

Panda at home, thanks to Dave, 14/11/21. Hazed orange with a good sized white covering. Nose is orange pith, melon, grass, sharp tropical fruits, hop dusting. Taste comprises orange pith, light pine nip, grapefruit, grass, melon, tangerine. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spiked with balanced hop bitterness. Decent easy enough easy drinking IPA.
