Panda thanks to Wingman. Near clear dark brown beer, small pale tan head. Smooth palate, decent fine carbonation on the back end. Very creamy sweet dark malts, sugary chocolate, a little artificial vanilla. Meh, this one got away from this fab brewery as far as I am concerned, the exception that proves the rule. Over sweet and a bit artificial, reminds me of the one and only time I tried the awfulness that is Kinder.

Panda at home, thanks to the Wingmane, 22/09/24. Black with a tan cap that thins to a swirl. Nose is decadent chocolate, vanilla icing, dark malts, toffee fudge. Taste comprises chocolate cake, toasted brown sugar, vanilla, chocolate icing. Medium bodied with bite, fine carbonation, light drying close with a kick of alcohol. Tidy pastry affair if a little 1D in its execution.

16oz can from Tavour. Near black pour, fizzy beige head, thin ring remains. Aroma is chocolate and caramel, roasty malts behind. Taste is mild bitter chocolate, rich sweet caramel and then the frosting notes kick in, coconut and pecan. Nailed the cake vibe completely

Can from Tavour. Pours very dark brown with a creamy tan pour that did a mini-Guinness. Aroma of chocolate, coconut and butter. Near full bodied. Not dry. Lots of coconut and chocolate in the flavor. Sorta buttery. Dark malt can be found. Not at all bitter. Pretty much does the claimed flavor.
