Can at home. Dark brown to black color, average sized beige to light brown colored head. Aroma and flavor are malts, dark malts, sweetish. Don't get much more. Also don't get barrel aging tbh. Mwah.

Panda 🐼 at home thanks to Colin. An oily dark black brown coloured pour with a halo of dark tan head. Aroma is hot alcohol, fudge, dried fruit, cakey malts. Flavour is composed of medium sweet, sticky brown sugars, spicy cake, dried fruits, woody notes, port notes. Palate is medium sweet, sticky, oily, fine carbonation. Fun.

Can at home, from Yards & Crafts online, 02/01/22. Light black with a decent tan head that dissipates to a swirl. Nose is roast malts, dried fruits rinds, cocoa powder, liquorice, treacle toffee. Taste comprises dark malts, roasted bite, fruit cake mix, toffee, chocolate, mellow bourbon nip. Full bodied with bite, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a balanced kiss of alcohol. Ok sippable BA impy stout but lacks depth ... grew on me though and went from an initial 3.6 to a 3.7.
