11.2 oz. bottle, pours jet black, almost no head. Aroma is rich, with tons of liquid banana bread, a touch of cinnamon, dark sugars, and big bourbon notes. Flavour is likewise very rich, with intense banana and cinnamon upfront, followed by huge bourbon and sticky sugars to round things out. The clove is there but not too intrusive and instead complements everything else. Rich, sweet but not cloying, and wonderfully integrated. Excellent.

Poured from 11.2 fl oz bottle (330mL). Very dark brown with minimal beige head. Bready banana aroma, taste adds old woody bourbon barrels, mild chocolate and molasses. Comes together nicely.

Panda at home, thanks to the Wingmane, 17/12/23. Black with a tan head that dissipates edgewards. Nose is chocolate, mellow barrel, banana presence, caramel, dark malts, molasses. Taste comprises banana bread, chocolate, light roast, brown sugar melt, toffee, molasses, well integrated spice, bourbon tones. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Solid BA impy ... you can pick up the nana on the nose, but less so in the taste ... great balance and well integrated barrel note stop this from running overly sweet.

12 oz bottle. The aroma is very promising because I get vanilla and a moderate amount of banana. Oh my!! The flavor changes a little bit every time I sip it. Subtle waves of vanilla, banana, and bourbon. The bourbon does wonders to cut the sweetness. And yet the vanilla and banana, both survive. Amazing!!
