Panda at home, thanks to Ed Danlo, 17/04/24. Deep mahogany brown with a decent enough beige head that eventually clears edgewards. Nose is herb, dried red berries, hedgerow, spice, malt forward, hint of yuzu. Taste comprises dark malts, biscuit, grains, herb, stewed fruit, modest citric zest, perfume, light ginger, hibiscus. Medium bodied with bite, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Not bad ... sips easy for 9% and doesn't run overly sweet.

330ml bottle from the National Brewery Centre Shop, Burton-on-Trent. Reddish amber brown colour, tan foam head and aroma of malt, yeast, candy, flowery, musk. Taste is sweet, malt, caramel, candy, yeasty, fruity, citric zest hints, with some bitterness. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, sweetish malty bitter finish. Quite drinkable.

Bottle from Mitsuwa, Edgewater NJ. Pours cloudy reddish-light brown with a small foamy beige head, medium carbonation, medium bitter caramel malt taste, faint lemon-pepper flavor, thin body, long bitter finish. Very interesting brew. The beer gushed out when I opened it, probably due to bottle fermentation.

Sansho pepper all over the place!... Makes it undrinkable.

330ml bottle. Pours a hazed dull reddish brown, brownish cream-coloured head. Malty nose with mild spice. Smooth palate, nice amber malt, dubbel aspirations with a pleasant sweetness and complimentary sancho spice. Unusual to have a spiciness like this in a Belgian dubbel but it works nicely.

A dark brown beer, a head is medium and light beige. Aroma has flowers, fruitness, light caramel. Taste has flowers, spicyness of pepper, light fruitness. Medium bodied. Interesting, spicyness is great and it gives more nuancees.

(Bottle, 0.33 l - 05,/2024, from Alko, 20210716) The label tells this one has been brewed in Belgium. The beer poured dark brown and hazy with a tint of red. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had malts, floralness, Belgian style yeast and caramel. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were caramel, toasted malts, spices, Belgian style yeast, floralness and bitterness. Aftertaste was spicy, malty and bitter. A decent malty brew with strong notes of spiciness.
