330ml panda from LCB. Pours a clear amber brown with small off white covering. Aroma of mixed bread, toffee, mandarin oranges. Taste does showcase some malt complexity as picking up bread, caramel and fruitcake as well as marmalade and some fresher citric hop notes. Reasonable bitterness. Medium bodied, light chewiness. Good.

330ml panda from LCB. Misted dark gold/light amber with swirly white head. Aroma has a yeasty citric fruit tang with dank and floral hops and a touch of biscuit. Taste of mandarin, grapefruit, pine, earthy floral notes, pale malt. Slight yeast-tang to it but more balanced than aroma suggested. Quite a bitter brew but enough sweetness to balance.

330ml panda from LCB. Very hazy milky gold with wispy white head which lasts. Aroma is mellow tropical with biscuit with candied citrus zest hints. Taste of lemon, pineapple, lime, herbs. It starts quite fruity, mellow and creamy, then tanginess and a light herbal bitter edge creeps in. More of the latter would have elevated this but its enjoyable. Mid bodied, soft carbonation.
