This seasonal release is a tribute to cake, but not just any piece of sponge deserves a beer. What better dessert to celebrate than an Australian icon - The Lamington. This beer started as an English Brown Ale full of rich chocolate and caramel flavours, and then we pack it full of coconut. Enjoy this delicious, balanced beer! ◉ Additions: Coconut

I was actually drinking the Deeds Lamington Ale in a 440ml can at 5.5%. So slightly different recipe, by the looks. The aroma's close to the mark - coconut, chocolate, vanilla cake and I swear I even get some jam at the end. There's a slight citrus bite in the taste, plus more of a cocoa chocolate flavour. Very enjoyable.

Bottle. Fairly dark brown with a beige head. Smells of slightly fake chocolate and coconut: just like a lamington. But is that good? Very sweet with chocolate, coconut, some slight metallic notes. No particular finish. Just too sweet for me.

(Bottle) Clear deep mahogany brown with thin short-lived off-white head. Unusual, interesting and pleasant aroma - toasted nuts and coconut, chocolate, hints of toffee and slight vegetable / seaweed notes. Light body, fizzy coarse carbonation. Rather odd taste - toasted coconut is dominant at the start and through into the mid palate. However a rather harsh metallic, maybe stewed black coffee, bitterness develops as the coconut fades, continuing into a really quite unpleasant finish. As long as you take another sip as the coconut fades, it’s fine! There’s some toffee notes underlying these flavours. Overall, it’s unusual, inventive, worth trying, but not right.
