Panda thanks to Cloin. Almost clear dark brown amber beer, thin pale tan head. Thin palate, a little fine carbonation. Thin but creamy dark malts, a little dark chocolate. Mild ripe fruits,suggestion of bourbon ba. Airy semi dry finish. Overall just a bit thin and apologetic without being completely lame.

Can at home, Can't recall from where, 28/04/24. Nose is Taste comprises Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close

330ml can from KWM Wines: BB 30th April 2025. Poured into a Gordon's thistle shaped glass at home on 3rd February 2024. Black bodied with a tanned crown. Nose is boozy, woody, whiskey and malty, taste is on the same lines with the barrel aging very obvious. Strangely it's not really 'slick' or 'rich' body wise, nor is it 'smooth', I'm liking it even though it's a little 'harsh' in places. It's interesting and I'm glad I bit the bullet and paid the extra for the can when ordering on-line.

Black with lasting head. Aroma starts with dark malt. Very light sweetness. Nice body. Some sort of boiled cabbage or cauliflower hanging around is a big negative though.
