Can. Black body under a dense mocha coffee type beige head. Aroma has malt and smoke, but less intense smoky flavor than expected from comments on various Facebook groups regarding this beer. In fact, a relatively moderate smoke note. Taste is quite straight forward malty, slightly roasted stout with a fine, pleasant smoke note. Balanced body and same aftertaste.

Panda at home, thanks to Ed Danlo, 11/03/23. Black with a tan covering that dissipates to a swirl. Nose is strawberry chocolates, dark malts, sugar dusting, strawberry creme, vanilla, nutty twang. Taste comprises sweet malts, chocolate, charr, lactic twang, strawberry compote, brown sugar dusting, toffee, mellow roast. Medium bodied with bite, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Decent enough pastry affair and doesn't run too sweet.

440ml can from the Queens Road Tap, Leicester. Light pinkish gold and hazy with a small ring of white head. Berry and vanilla aroma with a little bit of an acrid note. Delicious sweet taste with just a hint of sourness and marshmallowy sugar in the finish. A bit of a slow start but my goodness this really grows on me. A brilliant beer.
