Panda at home, from Grumbo - cheers Graham, 12/12/22. Pale yellow with a thin white cap. Nose is apple skins, light funk, hint of lime, dusty alleyway. Taste comprises bitter sweet apples, grains, vinous tickle, apple skins, lightest touch of funk. Medium bodied, light prickly carbonation, semi drying close. Decent flavoursome low ABV cider ... would imagine would be a good summertime chugger.
