Idaho 7, Centennial, and Simcoe bring bright citrus, sticky pine, and tropical hits of mango and papaya, with marmalade stickiness and resinous bite. Crisp,clear, and full-flavoured with a smooth, balanced bitterness, just how a West Coast should be. Modern brewing meets timeless American style.

Panda from Colin. Cheers. Opaque amber. Thin bubbly translucent white head. Aroma has resin and jammy fruit. Flavourwise it's really quite bitter. Resinous. Gooseberry sour edge. Underlying corky malts. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Soft-flat carbonation. Long dry astringent finish. After the initial promising aroma the flavour is certainly bitter but one-noted.

Can at home, from HOTM online, 08/02/2026.
Moderately hazed golden orange topped with a just off white cap that thins to a swirl.
Nose is citric sherbets, grass, melon, papaya.
Taste comprises bitter orange, grapefruit, grass, pine needle, melon.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, drying close spiked with grassy hop bitterness.
Not bad.
