Can at home in Hackney - picked up from HOTM. Pours black with a frothy, beige head. Medium to big sweet flavour, notes of rich chocolate, dark fruits, raisins, dates, coconut, fudge, roast, a little ash. Full bodied, oily, lightly chewy, fine carbonation. Lightly warming, lightly sticky, more coconut, vanilla, bittersweet dark chocolate, raisins, well toasted malts, earth. Good depth, and also highly drinkable. Excellent.

Black with a tan head. Aroma of coconut, Bounty bar, milk chocolate, caramel and soft coffee. Flavour is heavy sweet and moderate to heavy bitter almost hidden behind the sweetness. Full bodied with soft carbonation.

Can at home, from HOTM online, 26/03/21. Black with a big old dirty tan head that stays for show. Nose is dark malts, coconut shavings, mellow roast, dried fruits, vanilla fudge, brown sugar dusting. Taste comprises chocolate, Bounty Bar, dark malts, coconut fudge, brown sugar melt, light coffee tones, dried fruits. Full bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a gentle kiss of restrained alcohol. Solid stuff ... really delivers on the coconut flavour in a good way maintaining balance and never getting too sweet.

Can. Buxton online shop. Pours slick. Sits black in the glass. Fine beige head is leggy and lacing. Looks boss. Nose has coconut cream. Chocolate covered raisins. Rum and raisin choc ice. Roast malt. Washed coffee bean. Hint of orange hop. Taste is lip sticking sweet, turning tangy, vinous, roast malt bitterness. Super smooth mouthfeel. Fine carbonation. Drinks well under the ABV. Lingering vinous bitterness balances the chocolate and coconut sweetness really well. Lovely. Pound to a penny this got put in a bourbon barrel.
