Panda, courtesy of SaltyGrog, pours with a mahogany colored body that supports a mocha colored head. The aroma offers up chocolate and molasses infused dark roasted malts, a bit of nuttiness and then heading into thin layers of dark chocolate. OK. The taste delivers chocolate malts leading to roasted malts growing into highly roasted malts to midway. In there somewhere it produces a bit of a nutty vibe that works well here. Into the finish it picks up increasing velvety dark chocolate goodness. I dig it.

12oz can from Bodegas Cervezas in Palermo, picked up by my FIL, stowed in his luggage & flown home. A few months in the fridge while work settled down. Mojito glass at home. Double mash eh?
Not quite pitch black pour with a fluffy, latte brown head.
Smell is boozy chocolate, toffee, dates, & sweet breakfast cereal.
First thing I notice is how thick it is. Burnt raisin, lots of aged hops, sticky - lots of caramel, boozy dates, a little whipped cream. A note of espresso but it's straight up & through all the lingering pine.
Strong & heavy. Very old school.
