Bottle from Beer Ambleside. Appearance - deep golden, slightly off white head. Nose - lemon, lemon curd, custard. Fudge. Taste - fudge, sponge pudding and general caramel notes. Palate - creamy texture, medium bodied. Sweetish finish. Overall - could do with a bit more bitterness on the finish, but fairly typical of the style.

Panda to home, thanks to SHIG, 01/08/20. Clear golden blonde with a decent cap of white bubbles. Nose is pale malts, grass, vanilla, lemon, stale bread. Taste comprises light citric zest, grass, toasted grains, melon, sweetish perfumed vibes. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a vague suggestion of hop bitterness. So so affair ... weak attempt at the style.
