330ml panda from LCB. Clear gold with a few bubbles which dissipate. Aroma of fairly fruity, slightly caramelised stewed apple, white sugars, and just a waft of apple skin and blossom. Taste is on the sweet side, fruity ripe apple, low bitterness, light caramel. Slick, easy drinking, light alcohol warmth. Lacks some depth for the strength but went down nicely.

Draft to bottle from from lowcostbeer.com. Clear bright light red colour, still with a few minor bubbles. Fruity apple and cherry aroma with wood and a hint of caramel. Taste has a lovely fruitiness with red apples and berries, semi-sweet, plenty of caramel and custard. Easy drinking for the strength. Slick smooth body. Really tasty stuff.

Growler from LCB. Mostly clear light pink, brief white swirl. Aroma of rhubarb and custard with some drying apple and peel in the background. Taste as expected. Its sweet but not overly so for the style. There is a slightly rich dessert quality to it but the light slick body turns this into a very tasty palate cleanser if ever there was one. Nice.

21/8/2024. From BIAB at the 45th Peterborough Beer Festival. Pours clear pale gold with a small bubbly white head. Aroma is sweet, strawberry, touch of kiwi. Very sweet, slight tartness. Moderate body, oily watery, soft carbonation. Would have liked more kiwi to give it some balance.
