Panda thanks to Wingman. A mild haze on this gold beer, decent bubbly pale cream colour head. Light palate, semi dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Slightly thin bodied pale malts, oversweet for me, a little milky sweetness. Good Citra kick half saves the day, bright orange, lesser tangerine and mandarin, a little hop spice and of course, cooling pine. A better malt bill would have made this top notch.

Sample at Shelter, looks like pulp, lacey white head. Nose has perfume and tropicals, melon, lychee. Flavor is sweet with vanilla and melon and stone fruit compote. Herbs and flowers. Nicely balanced. Soft finish.
