Panda at home, thanks to SHIG, 19/11/21. Light murk on a reddish amber pour with a decent beige covering. Nose is dried fruits, spice, grains, biscuit, toffee, dusty hops. Taste comprises dark malts, toffee, spice, biscuit, dried fruit esters, straw, caramel, red berry nip. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a mellow bitter edge. Ok quaffable affair but struggling to see this as an IPA in any form other than a red one ... has to be this ... changed style Mr Shig.
