Draft pours deep black with thin tan head that quickly reduces to lace. A watery mouthfeel and an aroma of chocolate give the first impressions, but a surprising sour profile dominates pushing the mild chocolate flavors to the background.

Draft pours clear gold with generous white head that dissipates. Thin/silky mouthfeel with mild traces of tropical fruit but very little flavor and quite evenly balanced. Watery finish.

Draft pours hazy gold with a thin white head that quickly dissipates. Silky mouthfeel with a citrus flavor that dominates an evenly balanced profile. Mild citrus rind bitterness and peppery finish. Nice ale.

Panda at home, thanks to Graham Grumbo, 07/03/24. Golden amber with a modest just off white cap that soon vanishes. Nose is orange zest, grass, airy malts, light breads, herb. Taste comprises bitter orange, hint of grapefruit, grass, melon, straw. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close dashed with modest hop bitterness. Best IPA I've had from St Lucia ... not a disaster but weak for the style and for the ABV ... on the twiggy side of IPA's.
