From keg at Oluthuone Juova, Helsinki.
The beer poured brown in color, not much head.
Dark fruits, molasses, wood, warmth, raisins. Bourbon. Very tasty.

I got this 12 oz can from Half Time recently. Bourbon barrel imperial stout, that is the positive. Cherries as an adjunct, well, we shall see. Tulip glass for this tasting and I take the pour. A dark cola brown body with a decent skim of silvery tan foam. I smell an indication of cherries, a decent start, and chocolate. I have a drink, not bad. The cherries are front and center but not obscenely so. There is also baked bread, a touch of chocolate, some sourness offset by an equivalent sweetness, barrel and malt. I do like the substantial mouth feel. Okay enough, I anticipated worse.

Kicsi, tartós hab, fekete szín. Édeskés, csokis, kakaós, aszalt szilvás, szedres, fekete cseresznyés, áfonyás, mandulás, süteményes illat. Enyhén édeskés, csokis, kakaós, kávés, aszalt gyümölcsös íz. Ahogy melegszik, egy picit alkoholos és orvosságos ízek is előjönnek. Testes, közepesen szénsavas, erősen keserű. Az illata csodás, ízre finom, de egy kicsit komlóhansúlyosabb, mint amit egy stoutban szeretek.

Aromas are malt, resin, caramel, grassy, and a hint of citrus. Flavors are similar to nose with excellent balance between bitter, sweet and carbonation leaning just sweet. Add in some MJ. Really nice. Could drink more.

Panda at home, thanks to the Wingmane, 05/07/2026.
Black with a khaki head that thins to a swirl.
Nose is chai spice, coffee, dark malts, chocolate shavings, caramel.
Taste comprises dark malts, Jamaica ginger cake, coffee, spice, ginger, cardomom.
Full bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a lick of booze.
Solid stuff ... they've nailed the flavour combos here to produce a tasty well balanced beer.

355ml can. Almost black with a small tan head. Aroma of milk chocolate, vanilla, biscuits, caramel, and a whiff of bourbon. Taste is very sweet, milk chocolate, vanilla, toffee, caramel, coconut, biscuits, bourbon coming through way more than the aroma suggested, warming boozy finish. Full bodied, smooth.
