Panda at home, thanks to Kenny, 17/12/23. Unclear deep mahogany brown with a light beige cap that thins to a swirl. Nose is whisky barrel, dark malts, stewed fruits, toffee, spice, booze tunes, oak, dates. Taste comprises dates, figs, whisky kissed, fruit cake mix, molasses, toasted brown sugars, toffee, caramel, booze. Full bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a rising kiss of alcohol. Solid sipper.

9th December 2023 A light haze on this amber brown beer, small pale tan head. Smooth palate, semi dry and with a good fine minerally crispness. Pretty fucken light for the hefty abv! Good show! Smooth malts, a little creamy sweetness. Nice chocolate streak. The Irish Whiskey brings a smooth ripe fruity spicyness and more creamyness! Some vanilla barrell and boozy spice on the end. Then some savoury wood! Not the most complex of barleywines but it delivers the barrel with aplomb
