Panda at home, thanks to SHIG, 07/03/21. Clear golden copper with little in the way of a head ... looks dull and a touch lifeless. Nose is dusty fruits, biscuit crumbs, caramel, brown bread, hint of old carpet. Taste comprises stewed fruits, sweet tones, fruit slice, sugars. Medium bodied, moderate carbonation, semi drying close. Stuck in 2nd gear ... a rather dull affair not even redeeming itself with looks or body.
