Panda at home, thanks to SHIG, 10/06/21. Rich unclear raspberry red with a decent crimson cap that dissipates to a swirl. Nose is dusty hops, raspberry ripple, hint of vanilla, dusty hops, jammy berries. Taste comprises rich berry fruits, lactic twist, vanilla, blueberry twang, cane sugar, sweet malts, light citric twang. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a sharp berry climax and a mellow hop background. This is decent for the style ... not my kind of beer ... but I doff my cap to it ... delivers refreshment ... maybe don't want a whole load though!

Can. Mild to medium haze on this orange gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, mildly dry, reasonable fine carbonation. Smooth malts, reasonably sweet. Hops bring a nibbly hop spice and citric peel - marmalade. A touch or lemony orange from the azacca, would have liked more myself. A little smooth pine and some alcohol warmth on the finish. It's alright but it lacks any highlights to get me excited.
