Panda at home, thanks to Kenneth, 28/06/2025.
Hazed light orange to golden topped with a white cap that thins to a swirl.
Nose is sweet and creamy tropical fruits - almost like a pastry sour, pineapple, mandarin, orange creamsicles.
Taste comprises bitter orange, sharp citric zest, nowhere near as sweet as the nose suggested, melon, mandarin, light pine tickle.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spliced with juicy come lightly resinous hop bitterness.
Okay DIPA ... feared it would run silly sweet from the nose but it turned itself around.

Can. A mild to medium haze on this yellow gold beer, small and short lived off white head. Light palate, semi dry, good fine minerally carbonation. This bodied pale malts, sweet enough. Crisp pine hops. Decent citrus and a notable but dominant level of slightly tangy bitterness. Mild stone fruits. A thinnish finish bring a mild hop spice nibble that hangs around awhile. Tidy if a bit thin, was also hoping for more Talus magic.

Can from Drankenhandel Leiden. Grassy and fruity hop with citrus, lemon, dank hop, white grape, gooseberries. Moderate bitter with a somewhat dry finish. Medium body. Big dank grassy NZ hop profile, no hop burn though. Nice.

Dense juicy fruity with lots of tangerine and grapefruit, zesty citrus rinds with prickly hop spice, pineapple and gooseberry, splash of lime, thick mouthfeel and body, sweet fruity and bitter hoppy finish.
