Panda at home, thanks to Kenneth, 15/02/2025.
Almost clear golden orange topped with a thinnish just off white covering that thins to the edge.
Nose is orange zest, mixed tropical fruits, pine resin, hint of booze, light hop spice, grapefruit.
Taste comprises grapefruit, guava, orange jelly, pine resin, mango, papaya, ripe melon.
Medium bodied with bite, fine carbonation, semi drying close splashed with juicy to resinous hop bitterness allied to a balanced rising boost.
Tidy on point TIPA that carries it's 12% well ... have had a few better mind ... the general flavour profile just lacks some depth to it depsite its overall punchy bite.

Can. Almost clear gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, fairly light for the abv, a mild dryness and good fine minerally carbonation. Smooth pale malts, a thin but forward creamy sweetness. Hop spice bites immediately. Cooling pine. Into a fruit cocktail of hops. Nothing really leaps out but there is a good and satisfying smorgasbord of tropical fruits and stone fruits and a touch of candy fruits all in a vaguely vodka like setting. Smooth light finish leaves a hop spicy linger. Good stuff. As QIPAs go, this is a particularly easy drinking one so beware!

Aromas are fresh citrus and MJ with a little bit of resin and malt. Flavors are similar to nose, mildly sweet up front with a bittersweet finish. Until I go out of sediment in the bottom of the can hits your mouth and you get a major blast of bitter and read texture. Still pretty good beer. Just avoid that glob.

Aromas are a mix of resin, stone fruit, citrus and hint of MJ plus some malt. Flavors are similar to nose, slightly on a sweet side up front going towards bittersweet in the finish. Round body with decent carbonation. And a bit of sweet at the very end. Nice.

Sampled from the tap at Bricksworth North Loop. Pours a clear brown with a grayish brown head that dissipates quickly to the edges. Aroma has a good amount of sweet dark grains and a bit of a cola note. Flavor has a combination of vanilla and cola with a bit of sweet dark grain backing.
