Smell of hops, some pine and overripe fruit. Amber colour, off-white head. Aroma of hops, sweet malt, some biscuits and fruit in finish. Lively carbon. Medium bitter, lightly sweet. Nice classic IPA.

From Mugi, Bussigny. Serving me this can, relax, on saturday, coming back from Basel. A nice and classical ipa, brewed on the American way, a bit syrupy, malty, yeasty, mineral with a touch of sweetness, fruity, tropical, a bit boozy, 03.04.23.

Panda at home, thanks to Graham Grumbo, 29/05/2025.
Moderately hazed golden amber topped with an off white cap that thins to a swirl.
Nose is bitter orange, grass, yuzu, citric tinged straw.
Taste comprises orange zest, grapefruit, melon, citric tinged straw, light pine nibble.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spiked with grassy hop bitterness.
Okay old skool leaning IPA.

Can at home. Aroma of grapefruit, malty notes, hint of caramel, citrus, orange, hops. Flavour is light to moderate sweet with a medium bitter finish. Body is medium. Pleasant fruity hoppy IPA with a sweetish malt backbone.

26/10/2024. Can bought at a random supermarket in Fukuoka. Pours clear bright amber orange with a small frothy white head. Looks the part. Aroma is sweet malts, caramel, old hops, stewed fruits, resiny notes. Very sweet with moderate bitterness. Medium body, oily, average carbonation. Pretty disappointing “craft” effort. 28/4/2025. Can bought from Yutaka Shop online. Inadvertent purchase. Similar characteristics but I enjoyed this more than the one I had in Japan which I only gave a 5.9.
