Jul 10, 2005 I miss this beer. I had it first at Backbooth in Orlando. I heard a rumor that they may bring it back this winter! I hope so! Just imagine a really good porter with roasted coconut added. So good.

Mar 9, 2004 On tap at the Florida Tap Room, Orlando location. Near Disney World, if that makes any difference. It did to me.
Ok, let's see what we have here. Served in a huge pint glass, my guess is an Imperial Pint. (20 US fl. oz.) Anyway, it came to me..dark and lovely. Just like I like my women. But, I'll digress. It had a fair head, off white in color. Aromas are of the tropical islands. Imagine Jamaica in the high season. (Pun intended.) Aromas are of coconut, naturally, and also of dark roasted malts, along with some very fruity notes as well.
Coffee notes , along with a burnt roasty flavor. Very smooth mouthfeel, as it went down all too easily. The coconut flavor is somewhat subdued, needs improvement in that area. Other than that, it was a great change of pace from the everyday porter.

Mar 1, 2004 As porters are my favorite style I was interested in this local product. OK but nothing to visit Orlando for. I found it weak

Oct 19, 2002 On tap. No head just a thin rim of bubbles. Roasted malty aroma similar to a porter. Watery mouthfeel. Nutty flavor with a hint of coconut on the finish. Interesting.
