Can at home in Hackney - picked up from HOTM. Pours black-brown with a quickly fading, fuzzy brown head. Big and sweet for sure, lots of gooey chocolate, juicy and lightly tangy cherries, chocolate cake, mellow roast, earth. Medium bodied, lightly oily, with fine carbonation. Finishes with more sweet cherries, sugary chocolate, some fudge, cake. Some nice flavours in here, just a bit basic overall. Certainly does what it says on the tin.

Can at home in Hackney - picked up from HOTM. Pours black-brown with a frothy, khaki head. Big and sweet, lots of gooey chocolate, subtle roast, toasted sugars, some toffee, only very mild peanut butter impressions, some fudge, chocolate sauce. Full bodied, oily and chewy, with fine carbonation. Warming and somewhat sticky in the finish, lots more sweet dark malts, cocoa, soft earthy bitterness, some raisins, nips of milky coffee. Enjoyable stuff in that childish pastry stout kind of way. Thankfully it doesn't taste artificial, but it is really damn sweet.

Can from somewhere online. It pours darkest brown to black with a small tan cap. The aroma is roasty, bitter - sweet, salted peanuts, chocolate, peanut butter, earth, savoury character and oiliness. The taste is firmly dry, bitter - sweet, roasted malt, earthy, cacao, peppery spice, nutty, touch of sticky peanut butter and light tannin with a drying, toasty finish. Light body and moderate carbonation. Really nice on the aroma, but the taste doesn't quite live up to it. Novel AF action.

13/2/2021. Can sample courtesy of SHIG, cheers. Pours black with a small beige head. Aroma is of very sweet and creamy Black Forest gateaux, milk chocolate, light coffee, toffee and a touch of nut. Heavy sweetness with some tart black cherry. Full bodied, soft carbonation. Nice but just a little too sweet for me.

Panda at home, thanks to SHIG, 29/01/21. Black with a decent tan covering that thins to a swirl. Nose is sweet malts, Black Forest Gateaux, chocolate, brown sugar melt, chocolate dipped cherries. Taste comprises sweet malts, coffee, more BFG notes, glazed cherries, dark malts, molasses. Full bodied, oily feel, semi drying close with a balanced rising boost. Decent impy ... a touch on the sweet side but doesn't go runaway sugar rush.

Can sample at a tasting at Yoav's place. Cloudy golden. passion fruit, lacto, sour, juicy, some citrus. Very nice and refreshing.
