Keg Draught in Market Tap at Darlington covered market with danlo. Light yellow gold, hazy with a small film of white head. Pineapple, grapefruit, vanilla in the aroma. Sweet taste, tropical fruit sherbet, some lemon curd. Light bitterness closer to the finish. A bit of a plastic aftertaste. Medium body, soft to medium carbonation. Starts very promising but wanes toward the end.

Cask at EBF Nov 23. Aroma is resinous with a jammy edge. Opaque dark amber. Frothy bubbly white head thins out. Medium bitter. Light resin. Citrus. Tangy. But all a bit of a damp squib. Light. Slick. Average-fizzy carbonation. Long dry somewhat astringent finish. OK.

Panda at home, thanks to Ed Danlo, 14/09/23. Almost clear amber pour with a good sized lasting egg shell white head. Nose is orange zest, light floral whisper, airy malts, citric tinged straw. Taste comprises orange marmalade, grass, hedgerow, toasted grains, light astringent tones. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spiked with leafy hop bitterness. Passable IPA ... lacking a bit of balance.

440ml can from Caps Off. Clear orange gold colour, white foam head leaving lacing and aroma of citrus, pine, resinous hop. Taste is malt, caramel, orange citrus, grapefruit, pine, and with resiny hop bitterness. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, drying tangy hoppy bitter finish. Nicely drinkable.
It's got hops. Lots of them. Lovely
