Draft at E66 - Nice foamy head. Clings to side of glass as it collapses. Dark ruby red color. Aroma of sweet slightly toasted coconut. Almost perfumey. Coconut flavors prominent in first taste. Not overly boozy or toasted. Average mouthfeel. Is this really high octane alcohol? Ranks right up there with their red as a favorite when I stop in.

On tap at the brewpub
Appearance: Dark brown with a medium sized tan head and lots of lacing
Aroma: Coconut, vanilla and chocolate
Taste: Silky mouthfeel of chocolate, vanilla and coconut
A great after dinner beer, smooth, flavorful and easy drinking

I was really looking forward to a beer with coconut flavor! The beer was yummy, but dessert yummy. A little too much of a syrupy taste.

Draft. Dark brown beer with a dark cream colored head. Vanilla and coconut aroma. Vanilla and toffee flavor with coconut. Medium bodied. Vanilla and toffee linger with coconut. I get more vanilla than chocolate flavors

Tap black with big brown head. Nose of coconut cream, vanilla, and chocolate. Flavor is coconut, chocolate, nutty grain, vanilla. Palate is slighty creamy with a mild bitterness, but a little watery overall. Coconut dominates the nose and flavor, but hides the abv well. Worth a try but not one I’ll drink often.
