Panda thanks to Ibrew2or3: Poured a dark brown black with a tan head. Aroma is hops forward, tropical and citrus fruits, roasted malts. Taste is bitter hops, citrus, roasted malts, slap to the palate that I have been missing.

Pint can pours with a nice deep dark mahogany that supports a light tan head of foam. The aroma offers up a blend of citrus to spicy to a dash of tropical fruity hops as well as modest malty roastiness. The taste delivers an easy drinking CDA with a pleasing balance of moderate hop bitterness and malt roastiness. I get citrus hops heading into grapefruit like hop bitterness paired with a faint sense of tropical hop fruitiness and then growing spicy hops edged in a sort of pine like bitterness. Beneath the hops are dark roasted hops, on equal footing with the hops, as well as thin murmurs of chocolate maltiness toward the finish. This is a nice balanced yet right to style brew. Well done.
