Brewed with English malts, roasted coconut and Sorachi Ace hops this beer delivers a big dark chocolate and roast coconut aroma with all the tastes from well-balanced porter-roasted malt, chocolate and hints of coffee paired with a silky smooth coconut hit on the finish to make for a full luxurious flavour. Altogether this makes for a big porter with some serious drinkability.

440ml can from New Invention Brewery @ 7%. Very dark brown with thin tanned head. Malty roasted aroma, dark chocolate, caramel, coconut. However coconut is more notable in the taste without it being overdone. You have sweet malts, slight coffee roastiness, chocolate, coconut, lemon and earthy hops. Medium body and carbonation, quite dry. Using roasted coconut seems to cut out some of the creaminess and richness you can get from an already malty style. Using Sorachi hops seems odd with its big lemon notes but seems to cut through well here as it is used in moderation. Very well crafted beer this. The more I have the more I like!

Bodney Towers bottleshare. Thanks to Wingman. Almost clear amber - brown beer, small pale tan head. Airy palate, semi dry, decent fine carbonation. Thin dry dark malts. Trace of dark chocolate. Mild spice. Mild bitterness. Thin dry finish. Didn't really notice any coconut or Sorachi as the palate was grinding my gears.
