330 ml can. Pours a ruby reddish brown with light head. Aromas of raisins, toffee, drambuie and toasted malts. Flavors of dried fruit, dry fruity chocolate, and toasted malts. Much drier than the nose predicts. Warm finish, but well in hand for the ABV. Very good.

Amber beer with a thick off white cap. Big aroma of fruit, caramel and malt. Flavour follows suit. Loads of malt, rich caramel, boozy warmth, dried fruit. A little harsh with the alcohol in the finish but it's rich, warm, smooth and tasty.

Panda at home, thanks to Kenneth, 26/09/24. Deep chestnut brown with a light beige cap that thins to a swirl and edging. Nose is stewed fruits, booze, light varnish, caramelised sugars, figs, oak. Taste comprises caramel, burnt toffee, brown sugar melt, molasses, stewed fruits, vinous, dates. Full bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close Decent enough old skool sipper if somewhat lacking depth to the flavour for the big 14% ABV on offer.
