Panda, courtesy of SHIG, pours with a mahogany colored body with deep copper hues and supporting a thin tan head of foam. The aroma offers up chocolate covered marshmallow, some oak, tight bourbon and then some soft maltiness. The taste delivers smoothly growing chocolate notes mixed with growing booze and boozy barrel character. To midway chocolate and boozy bourbon mingle and pick up a modest sweet dark fruity ester note and takes it into the finish. Fun beer.

Panda at home, thanks to SHIG, 14/03/24. Black with a khaki head that veers edgewards. Nose is caramel, coffee, dark malts, faint spice, roasted tones, cacao nobs, toasted brown sugars. Taste comprises caffe late, spice, vanilla bean, charr, mellow roast , chocolate shavings, dark malts, coffee grinds. Medium bodied with bite, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a light kiss of alcohol. Decent impy shizzle ... good balance ... doesn't run overly sweet and carries a good coffee bite which helps dampen any rising sweetness.

10/31/20 Can from Appalachian Vinter. NB goblet @ home. Sticky, lingering, neon white head on this one. Hazed gold body. Smells of mellow pine-y hops & orange creamsicle. Taste is same creamsicle, fresh lime rind, hops taste like rosemary to me. Powdered sugar sweetness. Lingering vanilla & talc on the finish. Mellow carbonation, good acid. If it wasn't for the lactose, I think I would have enjoyed this. Expected much worse.
