Panda thanks to Cloin. A what now? Not sure what this style is supposed to be?! Anyways - pretty much a clear dark brown beer, small bubbly darkish tan head. Light, especially for the abv, palate, semi dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. Thin bodied dark malts, a thinnish dark malt cream, dark chocolate and fairly rich fruity coffee. The barrelling adds rich fruity whiskey, which goes well with the base beer. A fairly light and smooth finish. Very drinkable for the wine level abv. All the elements come together very well. Certainly nothing out the ordinary style wise but, just an intrinsic rightness about this one. Very tasty

Panda courtesy of Theydon_Bois, cheers Colin! Black brown colour with reddish tinge, thin beige foam head and aroma of roast malt, molasses, dried fruit, chocolate & coffee. Taste is smooth roasty malt, caramel, brown sugar, sultanas, with chocolate & coffee notes, wood barrel and earthy bitterness. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, drying woody roasty bitter finish. Nicely drinkable.

Panda from Colin. Cheers. Dark and glossy brown. No head. Aroma is sweet and boozy. Is that peat? Also Dark fruit and molasses. Flavourwise it mirrors the aroma. Datk fruit and molasses. Coffee too. A boozy bite with an element of sweetness and smokiness. Thick. Oily. Soft carbonation. Long dry somewhat astringent finish. Nice.
