Panda thanks to Cloin. Clear gold beer, a few residual white bubbles never form a head. Light palate, mildly dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. Slightly grainy malts, not really in a bad way, just less hidden than I prefer. Light cooling pine. Modest citrus, trace of peel. Light and semi dry finish. Pretty dull but inoffensive.
