375mL bottle, pours jet black with a small tan head. Aroma is full of bourbon barrels, dark sugars, and cocoa. Flavour is rich and complex, with big bourbon barrels, dark sugars, chocolate, and booze. Cohesive, rich but not brutal. Lovely.

Panda at home, thanks to the Wingmane, 16/07/22. Black with a thin khaki cap. Nose is rich roast, bitter chocolate, good bourbon blast, molasses, toffee fudge. Taste comprises chocolate, light spice, honey, molasses, brown sugar melt, light vanilla, dried fruit rinds. Full bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a rising kiss of alcohol and a good spike of bourbon. Solid BA impy and sips pretty easy for a big 14% job.

Bottle shared by Johnny. Opaque pitch black color. Small brown colored head. Aroma is amazing...roasted malts, malts, dark malts, molasses lightly, loads of bourbon, lightly figs. Flavor is malts, roasted malts, huge bourbon, oats(?), chocolate, vanilla, nicely bitter as well. Absolutely awesome. Full body, suitable soft carbonation. Delicious! -- Another try today, June 6th 2022 and it blows me away again and even more than yesterday. This is simply amazing!! I haven't had such a good beer in years and I think that says something after 22k beer almost. Wow, just wow. I'm upgrading this from 8-9.5-9.5-9-9.5=9.3 even further to an 8-10-10-10-10. Amazing stuff!!

Taster, draught at Oslo Craft Beer Festival, yellow session. Jet black in the glass, shiny naked surface, fragile lacing. Appealing chocolate nose, mid-sweet and smoothly roasted. Powerful taste character of honeyed chocolate malts supported by dried fruits and a bourbon twist to a warm and lingering malt driven finish. Full bodied. Perfect nightcap. (Oslo 06.05.2022).
