Taste comprises chocolate melt, mellow booze nip, molasses, brown sugars, toffee fudge, rye barrel, subtle spice.
Full bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a balanced rising boost offered.
Solid well balanced BA sipper.

Panda thanks to Wingman. Pretty much an opaque dark brown beer, small and short lived bubbly dark tan head. Smooth palate, fairly light all told, a modest dryness and decent fine carbonation. Transient intensity bursts out of the glass. Super rich chocolate cake / chocolate torte. Ripe fruity chocolate segues seamlessly into the punchy fruity whisky and whisky alcohol spice. Fairly light finish. Long spicy linger. Woof! Intense!
