Draft. A black beer with a brown head. The aroma has notes of dried fruits, roasted malt, and dark chocolate. The flavor is sweet with notes of plums, dark chocolate, and roasted malt, leading to a bitter finish.

440ml can from the brewery. Poured a clear black colour with a thin broken tan head. The aroma is roasty malt, raspberry citrus. The flavour is moderate sour, with a tart raspberry, roasty malt palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation.

Panda at home, thanks to Fergus, 14/01/22. Black with a moderate tan covering Nose is dark malts, berry fruits, liquorice, chocolate, umami, raspberries. Taste comprises chocolate, bitter red berries, dark malts, plummy, sweet malts, sugars, Kir Royal. Medium bodied with bite, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a light kiss of booze. Ok easy drinker if a touch on the sweet side ... belies its 11% boost factor ... would have guessed an 8 ish number.

Cask @ Vocation & Co, Hebden Bridge. Near black with a creamy off-white head. Its plum is a little more stated in taste than aroma and has a mild sweetness.

Can at home picked up from Vocation online. A dark brown cola coloured pour with a lasting creamy mid dark tan head. Aroma is earthy roast, toasted chestnut, tangy jammy raspberry, hint of smoke, littl umami on the nose. Flavour is composed of tangy raspberry, cocoa, earthy roast, black forest gateaux, little umami, mellow roast. Palate is semi sweet, tangy, moderate carbonation. Like it.

Black beer, foamy tan head. Smells malty with a little fruit. Flavour has the fruit up front. Tart berries and sweet plum but the fruit doesn't overpower the rich malt or dash of chocolate cutting through this. A very sweet stout but manages to be balanced to stay the right side of sickly. Rich and smooth and very tasty.
