Panda thanks to Wingman. Hazy orange gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Light palate, mildly dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Light bodied pale malts, a thin but smooth creamy sweetness. Plenty of hop bite and cooling pine. Ripeish citrus and a little singed woody mango or something of that ilk. Light crisp finish leaves a long spicy linger. Curious but quite drinkable.

Panda thanks to Wingman. Gosh, a Citra & Mosaic dipa from AT, didn't see that coming....A mild to medium haze on this gold beer, small and short lived bubbly pale cream colour head. Light palate, mildly dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Light smooth pale malts, a rich creamy sweetness. Soft pine. Ripeish citrus with a nice touch of blueberry. Mild hop spice on the smooth finish which also brings a little bitterness. Pretty decent if pretty predictable.
