MCR July Specials Beer#17. My only Manchester drinking day this month so a sweep of the one-offs. It's not a typical stout, but there's lots of sweet roasted notes in both aroma and taste here, in a easy smoothish texture, which appeal. There's an underlying coconut flavour from it. It is sticky-sweet.

Draught keg at the Gas Lamp, Manchester. Dark brown, fairly opaque with a dissipating khaki head. Nose of over-roasted coconut, vanilla, dried grass. Sweet, sweet taste with lots of chocolate to the fore, but the coconut is also very present. The lightest of balancing bitterness at the finish but this remains really sweet throughout. Light body for the ABV with medium tight carbonation. Brilliant beer.

Can from Eltham Wines. Nice nose of dark chocolate, coffee, smoke, dessicated coconut, raisin. Flavours are a sweet malty mix of the above, some cocoa coming through in the back end. Dry, sweet & malty. Exceedingly pleasant.

Can from House Of Trembling Madness. Black body with a thin fan head. Low carbonation. Good lacing. Aroma of Snickers, Bounty and hazelnut. Flavour of toffee and umami. Medium to full body with a chewy mouthfeel. I loved this.

Can. Nose is coconut, chocolate, bounty bars, sweet. Taste is bounty bars, lots of dedicated coconut, chocolate, a slight bitter dry note, but ultimately too sweet
