Panda thanks to Cloin. Near opaque dark brown beer, small and very short lived tan head. Smooth and slightly viscous palate, good fine minerally carbonation lightens. Chewy dark malts, an intense and bitterish espresso vibe. A little dark chocolate underneath, the cheap candyish kind. Some brandyish alcohol and spice. A fair few esters on the semi dry and warming finish. Entertaining if a little unhinged and unrefined. No denying the flavour packed in to every sip!

Jet black with a very short head. Aroma of dark berries flavour is fruit wine, warm berries, smooth malt, all things beautiful.

Can at home, from Craft Central.ie, 25/02/2025.
Bit of a gusher.
Lighter shade of black with a fast collapsing tan head.
Nose is chocolate shavings, dark malts, brown sugar melt, light coconut, booze tunes.
Taste comprises milk chocolate, light booze tunes, toffee fudge, brown sugar melt, molasses, light spice, mellow barrel edge.
Full bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a balanced kiss of alcohol.
Decent enough sipper if somewhat lacking complexity.

Can from Drankenhandel Leiden. Whisky and chocolate aroma with cocoa, roasted malt, some alcohol, more chocolate. Flavour is moderate to medium sweet and light bitter. Smooth finish, medium to full body. Well-balanced stuff.
