2023 release. Creamy tan head on a still black body. Boozy, Christmas pudding & cognac aroma. Full bodied, smooth soft greasy with a sticky back. Soy, caramel, brandy, Christmas cake, raisins & berry tastes with a huge boozy finish. Big hitter - Sipper.

Panda at home, thanks to Kenneth, 24/04/24. Pitch black with a good sized khaki head. Nose is dark malts, chocolate, winter cheer, herb, spice, cardamom, clove, dried fruit rinds. Taste comprises chocolate, almonds, cinnamon, herb, dark malts, fruit cake, mix, raisins, dates, figs, candied fruit rinds, nutmeg. Full bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a balanced kiss of alcohol. Solid kit ... captures the essence of a Christmas Cake impy very well.

27th March 2024 Can. Opaque dark brown beer, decent tan head, very short lived. Palate is light, very fucken light for 14 out of a hundred of yer abvs! Decent fine minerally carbonation. This brew tastes like a mince pie but a mince done Spinal Tap style, it's turned up to eleven and beyond! Big booze soaked raisins. Brandy, rum and Cola. Ripe fruits and cinnamon spice. A fairly light finish, all things considered. Thoroughly entertaining in it's unabashed boozy Xmas style! Wish I had had this at Xmas. If you have a can, it will keep until next Xmas and probably about 15 after that!!

Fra fat på LL lille nyttårsaften formiddag: brunsvart med kort skum. Intens og kompleks aroma og smak hvor muskat kanskje er det man først legger merke til. Mørke appelsinchokolader, brandymarinerte rosiner/sultaner, søte kirsebær, kanel, ingefær, mørke karameller og andre syndige inntrykk står i kø. Lavt karbonert, silkemyk og fyldig. Saftige heker!
