16 ounce can from Tavour. Bright amber orange pour. Frothy beige head. Toasted malt nose hints at caramel and cut grass. Flavor upfront is toasty, spicy and herbal. Caramel malt, grassy hops and excellent balance. Well crafted and spot on for the style.

Poured from an undated 16 oz can. Aroma is malt forward with nice bready malt notes and a touch of cracker notes as well. Hints of alcohol. Light floral, herbal hop note. Pours a clear, pale, yellow-gold with a large, thick, fluffy, white head that recedes slowly to a small film that lingers. Moderate lacing and faint legs. Flavor is slightly sweet with moderately strong notes of bread and hints of cracker and biscuit. Medium to medium high bitterness and hints of alcohol. Light herbal, floral hop note. Mouthfeel is light bodied and somewhat crisp with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a decent lager. Nice malt notes, especially in the aroma. The hop notes are balanced and add some nice character to the beer. Fairly bitter. Alcohol well hidden.

Poured from a 16 oz can dated September 13, 2024. Aroma is hop forward and somewhat fruity with quite a bit of dank notes as well. Grapefruit, pineapple, passion fruit, berry and tropical citrus with some pine resin and some dank, herbal notes. Medium light alcohol and light cracker malt notes. Pours a hazy, dull,.golden straw color with a medium large, thick, pillowy, white head that recedes slowly to a small film that lingers. Medium high amount of lacing and small legs. Flavor is fairly sweet with light cracker malt notes. Medium low bitterness and medium light alcohol notes. Moderately strong hop notes of passion fruit, berry, pineapple and tropical citrus. Lighter dank, pine and herbal notes. Mouthfeel is medium full bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a solid TIPA. a bit overly sweet without the bitterness to balance it, but it does hide the alcohol fairly well. Fairly fruit,u especially in the flavor. I'm not sure what if anything the terpenes add, but they certainly don't detract from the beer.

Panda at home, thanks to Kenneth, 01/09/24. Moderately hazed golden orange topped with a lasting just off white head. Nose is bitter orange, grass, pine needle, grapefruit, melon, mandarin. Taste comprises orange peel, papaya, grass, grapefruit, pine needle, mango, hop spice. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spiked with a balanced rising boost. Tidy enough DIPA if no wow offered.
