Panda thanks to the team and Cloin for the panda. Near opaque dark brown beer, small bubbly tan head. Palate starts smooth and a little viscous but decent fine minerally carbonation comes through. Rich dark chocolate malts, sweet dark chocolate. A little coffee and coconut. Quite a boozy bourbon and even brandish back end. Alcohol spice starting to nibble. A rich and very rewarding brew.
