Panda thanks to Ibrew2or3: Poured deep brown with a beige bubbly head. Aroma is huge barrel, boozy, rich malts, nutty, vanilla, maple, sugary. Taste is nutty, pecans, toffee, rich malts, boozy, alcohol is hidden but there, maple candy.

12 oz. can, pours a deep dark brown with a reddish tinge and a small beige head. Aroma reveals burnt toasted pecans, a hint of maple, a hint of vanilla, and subtle whiskey barrels -- seems a bit muddled. Flavour is surprisingly attenuated out, with gentle pecans, light vanilla, alcohol, and a hint of maple syrup. Has a nice buttery pecan note, with a light whiskey barrel character. Very nicely put together.

Medium brown colour. No head. On the nose, a bit nutty, light vanilla. There's a hint of caramel, light vanilla, and some nuttiness on the palate. It's strong, but maybe not as complex as I'd prefer. Still good, though.

Slender 12oz can pours with a deep dark slightly murky mahogany colored body that supports a wafer short lived thin light tan head of foam. The aroma offers up boozy nutty whiskey booze followed by an increasing boozy heat, brown sugar and lingering faint nuttiness. The taste delivers smooth supple brown sugar nuanced rich maltiness flowing into a modest level of nuttiness in the background. To midway the reduced sugars and maltiness provide only a thin glimpse at the smooth whiskey barrel treatment. Toward the finish the substantial ABV leans into the experience creating a warming into the after taste. Nice sipper.
