Panda at home, thanks to Kenneth, 22/08/2025.
Hazed orange topped with a lasting just off white head.
Nose is mixed tropicana, raw pineapple, grass, melon, mandarin.
Taste comprises ripe tropical fruits, papaya, mandarin, light pine tickle, soft malts, hint of mango.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close splashed with juicy come lightly resinous hop bitterness.
Not bad but not as punchy as Overtone normally puts out.

Can. A mild to medium haze on this orange gold beer, small and very short lived pale cream colour head. Light smooth palate, reasonable fine minerally carbonation on the back end. Light smooth pale malts, a nice light creamy sweetness that is bolstered by obvious honey, quite a floral honey. Cooling pine into mellow citrus and a touch of Nelson grape. Light finish. Intriguing dipa. I think the honey is over cooked here but the idea is sound. Some tweaking could deliver summat spesh innit?

Can from Lupe Pintos. Murky golden body with a dense off-white head. No visible carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of mango, honey and cantaloupe. Flavour of vine tomatoes and melon. Medium to full body with a smooth mouthfeel. Soft fizz. Overtone certainly know how to brew a good DIPA.

Can from Appellation Wines.
Appearance - murky orange with a thin off-white head.
Nose - grassy and some dirty honey, maybe some melon.
Taste - again grassy and again honey, some orange and melon.
Palate - medium bodied, sweet and also very bitter finish.
Overall - the grassy green hop notes kinda spoil it a bit.
