Bottle-in-a-bag at From Beer To Eternity, Havant. Clear light gold. Thin foamy translucent white head sticks to the rim. Aroma had smooth honey with a very light sour edge. Flavourwise it has a sour edge (not overly so) , with sweet honey streak. Light. Thin. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry slightly astringent finish. Nice but too nice.

Panda in the Royal Hotel Newcastle, thanks to Ed Danlo, wee hours of 15/05/2025.
Almost translucent faded yellow with little in the way of a head.
Nose is rather thin, modest honey, herb, light spice.
Taste comprises honey, green peppers, chilli, spice, sugars.
Medium bodied with bite, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a balanced rising boost.
Okay drop ... chilli well evident but not too hot ... pity you fools till you try a Steel City chilli beast!

24/3/2025. Bottle shared by danlo, cheers Ed! Pours clear colourless with a few bubbles. Aroma is flowery, elderflower, honey, chilli. Huge chilli pepper burn on tasting, very firey. Medium sweetness, starts to develop a bit but is mostly suppressed by the heat. Medium body, no carbonation. Hard to enjoy this. Barely drinkable, just about sippable.
