Can from lowcostbeer.com, consumed 1 month past BBE. Pours a hazy orange, moderate sized fluffy head. Surprisingly muted aroma for a flavored pale. Some soft malts, grain, some light passionfruit and pine. Taste is also understated although pleasant, some fruitiness with soft malts. Medium bodied with the help of oats and a rather high carbonation. On one hand its good that its not adjunct heavy but this beer needs to pack more flavour.

Can from lowcostbeer.com, BBE August 21, so just in date. Pours a orange-gold, moderate sized white foamy head, settles down to a nice top. Aroma of grains, orange and passionfruit. Taste has a pine and zesty bitterness running throughout, orange fruitiness. Some sweetness but not quite balanced. Medium body and carbonation, dry finish. Its ok, certainly a punchy one.

Can from lowcostbeer.com, 3 months past BBE. Pours a clear gold, small white head, some retention. Aroma is quite grainy, oats notable, some floral hops. Taste is also quite grainy, some fruity and floral tang, moderate crisp bitter finish. Light to medium bodied, nice bit of zing on the carbonation. Not the best example of the style but I enjoyed it.

Panda at home, thanks to SHIG, 22/09/21. Hazed light orange to golden with a big old white cap formed of tightly knit bubbles. Nose is citric tinged straw, tangerine, dusty hops, trace of melon. Taste comprises orange peel, citric tinged straw, melon, grass, grains. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spiked with lightly astringent hop bitterness. Passable pale ... struggling to pull out of third gear but drinkable none the less.

Can bought at the Anglian Beer Company stall at Bury St E Market. Aroma has stone fruit with a peppery tickle and underlying syrupy sweetness. Hazy dark orange. Thick and lively fluffy foamy white head. Medium bitter. Stone fruit but also acetone verging on solvent-esque. The fruitiness soon loses out to off bitterness. Light bodied. Thin. Fizzy carbonation. Long dry astringent finish. Not great. Could use to clean brushes.
