Full bodied, sweet(but not too sweet), milk chocolate, touch of roast(but not acrid). We are very proud of this stout.

Can from Grotta Azzura & Grotta Local, New York, NY.
Nose is dark chocolate, smoke,raisin, coffee, cocoa. Smoky sweet flavours of dark chocolate, coffee, raisin. Unsurprisingly dry. Malty sweet finish. Great stuff.

Taster. Pours black, with a huge, thick, brown head. The aroma is cappuccino, toasted coconut, and toffee. Sweet and sugary, with a roasty, chalky bitterness. Medium to heavy body, smooth and creamy. Beautiful and well made.

Can @ Vinyl Beer, Manhattan NYC (June 2025). Pours opaque very dark brown with a very small frothy tan head doesn't endure long, rich dark chocolate-mocha aroma, medium carbonation, sweet mocha taste with strong dark chocolate dominance, smooth thin body, long dark chocolate finish. It's almost like a dessert!

Panda thanks to Wingman. Opaque dark brown beer, good bubbly pale tan head. Airy palate, semi dry, decent fine carbonation. Earthy dark malts, the earthiness well offset by the natural milky sweetness. Tangy dark chocolate and some espresso coffee. Airy and semi dry finish. A tasty affair, comes together well.

Panda at home, thanks to The Wingmane, 19/04/2025.
Pitch black topped with a tan head that dissipates to a swirl.
Nose is dark chocolate, mellow roast, lactic tang, hint medicinal.
Taste comprises cacao nibs, dark malts, mellow roast, nutty tang.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, drying close.
Tidy enough stout.

16oz can. Poured a nearly black color with a small brown head. Smooth like oil pour. Aroma was very big baker's chocolate, malty roast. Flavor is similar, dry bakers chocolate, with some mocha and bourbon. However, there's plenty of sweetness to it as well. Good stuff.
