Thanks to ThirstyBird for sharing. The beer starts smooth, great chocolate flavourful. The mainpart is toasty coconut. Very nice together with smooth milk chocolate. Thin vanilla note as well. The aftertaste is smooth, fresh, easy to drink, coconut, vanilla, roasted malt. Very nice, not sticky, roasted malt with a nice coconut ending. Great!!

Enjoyed at White Rock Pizza in Vermont in a can. Pours a dark brown colour with a beige creamy head that goes down quickly. Chocolate malts aroma with light vanilla hints. The coconut comes out in the taste, right over the roasted malts. Decent hops creating a light dryness in the finish. Coconut and burnt grain hints lingers. Well blended porter with beautiful notes of coconut, chocolate and coffee.

16 oz. can. Awesome idea for a porter. Dark brown some light head. Nose is chocolate and vanilla. The flavor delivers exactly as the can describes! Chocolate malt base, with nice amounts of vanilla and a subtle flaked coconut in the finish. This porter is sweet but not overly so.
This brewery does a great job infusing the vanilla and coconut. I enjoyed the hell out of this tall boy!
