On tap at Cheeseburger in Paradise Waikiki
Mostly black with a thin tan head that quickly dissipates. Earthy roasty licorice and molasses. Flavors are kind of on the strong side for a porter more stout like imho. .

On tap at Waikiki Brewing - Waikiki, pours a deep dark brown with a small beige head. Aroma brings out molasses, medium roasted malt, and some burnt bread crusts. Flavour has a nice rich maltiness, with caramelized sugar, molasses, and toasted malt. Nice malt character, with a finish on carmaelized sugars and bitterness. Good stuff.

On tap at the Waikiki location. Black with beige head. Aroma is dark malt, medium body, lower carbonation, and little lacing. Taste dark malt, a little molasses, and slightly dry finish.

15th December 2022, part of a flight at the Waikiki Lahaina Brewpub. Beige head on a black/very dark brown body. Malty molasses in both the nose and semi-sweet taste, chocolate and coffee flavors also feature heavily in this decent Porter.

12 oz can poured, and the finale of my Hawaii collection. Thanks to Hanna for the can! Dense cola brown appearance. Plenty of tan foam head that lasts. Rich milk chocolate like aroma. Aroma comes off as a dessert brew, but the flavor proves to be much more bold. Nice roast, soft coffee notes, molasses, sure. Chocolate and dark toasty, tasty malts. Moderate bitter, espresso like finish. Really fun brew here.
