12 oz. can. Stamp on bottom of can says 1/15/2015, nice and fresh! Full fluffy head that had great retention on a dark brown liquid. Aroma is coconut flakes, chocolate and mild nuts.
The flavor starts nutty (almonds, walnuts) base of the beer has a light level of cocoa/ chocolate malts. In the finish is where I find the mild tones of coconut. Very mild, I can smell it a bit more then I can taste it. This Porter reminds me of Fiddleheads Hodad Porter, just substitute the vanilla for the almonds that Baxter uses here in this one. Subtle.
