Bottle, directly from brewery. Color: Clear copper, very thin beige head. Aroma: Raisins, caramel, boozy.

Dry finish, tannins. Just above medium body, low carbonation. Medium sweet, light to moderate bitterness. Very nice slow sipper. Fortunately I was in Wales once again (after 27 years) at the right time to get the chance to drink this rare anniversary Old Ale.

Panda at home, thanks to Graham Grumbo, 21/07/24. Mahogany brown with a beige head that clears to the edge. Nose is brown bread, dull fruits, sugars, toffee. Taste comprises cocoa powder, light brown sugar dusting, dark malts, brown bread. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, light drying close. Okay porter if lacking some depth.
