Bottle thanks to John. Pours a copper gold with no head. The aroma is strong coconut, honey, chocolate, booze. Medium body, honey, cocoa, boozy, nice sweetness, very good.

Bottle shared at DACBE share. Thanks Adam! Pours a mostly clear goldenrod color. Coconut and bourbon on the nose with the cacao nib notes as it warms up. Smooth with the abv hidden well. The cacao adds a nice element to this version and there is a lot going on: honey, bourbon, cacao and coconut all meld well. Prefered the original with vanilla the best. --- Beer merged from original tick of Black Heath / The Veil Weight of the World (Coco Cacao) on 27 Dec 2019 at 20:24 - Score: Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 8 | Flavor - 8 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 8.

Amazing. Lemon/orange/floral/coconut/cocoa/vanilla/toffee/honey/herbal/yeast earth. Sweet/fairly full body. Some spicy alcohol drying. No cloying. Smooth/silky sipper. Amazing honey/adjunct complexity. Loved it
