Can from Eddy's Beverage Inc. Inky, cola brown with nice sparkle, ephemeral fizzy head, thick, white floaties in suspension and trace lacing. Aroma is strong vanilla, sweet malt, milder coconut. Taste is strong vanilla, covering alcohol (somewhat medicinal), sweet malt, mild coconut. Smooth, thick texture, full bodied, soft carbonation, alcohol heat and finish as taste (including medicinal quality). Not an appetizing look and alcohol is too prevalent.

On tap at Hubbard�s Cave, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma is rich, with lots of vanilla, gentle coconut, and dark sugars. Flavour is rich, with big vanilla, subtler coconut, and dark sugars. Quite boozy and not the smoothest, but there�s some nice base malts and dark sugars. Good stuff.

16 oz. Aroma has notes of booze, coconut, vanilla, dark chocolate. Pours black with a thin collar of beige foam, no real head. Taste is fairly sweet with a moderately bitter edge; strong coconut flavor. Softly carbonated mouthfeel. Tasty.

Can from Holiday Market. Pours a pitch black with a finger of brown foam that lingers, then dissipates. Big vanilla bean and toasted coconut aromas with milk chocolate, vanilla latte notes. Sweet vanilla and coconut notes on the palate with a thick and well-rounded mouthfeel. Smooth and silky texture. Lingering liquid brownie, vanilla ice cream and coconut flavors. Sweet vanilla on the finish with coconut and faint warming alcohol notes.
