A juicy 5% hazy pale, with Eclipse, Amarillo and Talus hops. Have enjoyed the AUS options recently, and this bag of Eclipse was pouring out all sorts of tropical aromas. Lemons and oranges from Amarillo and Talus.

Bright juicy punchy fruity aroma and taste, getting notes of satsuma and grapefruit, melon and lemon, sweetish pale malts, talus herbaceous edge, piney balanced bitter hoppy finish. Tasty and refreshing. Lovely.

Panda at home, thanks to Kenneth, 18/03/2025.
Moderately hazed orange golden topped with an off white cap that thins to a swirl.
Nose is bitter orange, grapefruit, grass, papaya, ripe melon, pineapple.
Taste comprises orange pith, melon, grass, papaya, soft malts.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, drying close spiked with light juicy come grassy hop bitterness.
Tidy enough pale.

Can. A mild haze on this yellowish gold beer, small pale cream colour head. A light and crisp palate, mildly dry. Smooth if slightly thin feeling malts, sweet enough. Nice trio of hops. Light crisp pine intro into a lovely balance of juicy stone fruits and citrus. Natural stone fruit tang. Quite a peachy back end along with a mild hop spice nibble. Bright and satisfying.

Tap. Chubby Seal, Holt. Fully hazed up custard yellow. Thin dense white foam. Nose has lemon sorbet hoppage. Light creamy malts. Surprisingly and welcomingly not too sweet. Fair crisp bitterness throughout. Easy drinking overall albeit a tad thin.
