This variant of our multi-award winning ‘Very Big Moose’ is infused with coconut. The smooth, velvety mouthfeel and cacao and vanilla flavours blend really well with the coconut to give a luxurious, tropical Moose experience.

Can shared at a tasting at Max's place. Black, tan foam. Lots of coconut, vanilla, chocolate, very sweet, sugary, full-bodied. Good but too sweet.

330ml can. Black with a small tan head. Aroma of chocolate, vanilla, coconut. Taste is rich, sweet, chocolate, vanilla, coconut which doesn't overpower, slightly roasty, less boozy than other VBM variants, the alcohol is really well hidden. Full bodied, smooth. Best of the variants in my opinion but the original is still best.

Thick, coconut-sweet porter hides the 12% pretty well
