Panda at home, thanks to Kenneth, 08/09/2026.
Black with a good sized khaki head that settles as a swirl.
Nose is bitter roast, earthy fruit rinds, herb, spice, cacao nibs.
Taste comprises roast malts, spice, charr, light vanilla interlude, lick of brandy.
Full bodied, fine carbonation, drying close with a light rising boost.
Okay sipper but came over a touch raw and I expected a little more based on the other scores.

Mango & pithy citrus aroma.
Medium to full bodied, super smooth oily with a clean back.
Mango, lime, resin & dank hop tastes with a massive hot)p hit on the finish.
Excellent.

Near opaque dark brown beer, a reasonable tan head. Soft dark malts, a little dark malt cream with classic touches of coffee and dark chocolate. Apple Brandy pretty obvious, that ain't a complaint! Fairly bright and tangy apple with a pleasing ice cider boozy aspect. Mild coconut. A pretty light finish. Doesn't need the adjuncts, the barrelling is more than enough.

Can - turbid gold - minimal head - bittersweet flavor, with a fair amount of mango and pineapple - a bit astringent and kind of flabby in the mouth - pithy finish, with lingering sweetness but then ultimately a dry, lingering bitterness - itβs decent.

Can - you can taste the fucking lactose in this big time - and the hop bitterness is low, which makes the sweetness that much more obvious - tastes grainy and muddled, with indistinct hop character and apparent alcohol - although I have to say I enjoy the rusticity of the spelt here, even if the overall flavor is muddled - ditch the lactose and ferment this with a Belgian and saison yeast and you might have a winner - meh.
