A fantastic combination of milk chocolate and coconut in a decadent porter. It is roasty, rich and inviting

Nose is coconut and milk chocolate. Bounty. Taste is pronounced coconut and chocolate, leading to a light fruitiness and plum with a lightly bitter finish with a hint of smoke that stops it being cloying.
Really well balanced.

Well rounded overall. Nice character without being a sugary pastry. Notes of chocolate, roast, raisin, oily coconut, creamy chocolate. Medium bodied, smooth, rounded finish, more toasted coconut, gooey chocolate, mild roast, soft bitterness. Highly drinkable.

Can picked up from Beyond Beer webshop Hamburg and consumed at home Wednesday 13th May 2026. We have a Gorgonzola Mac & Cheese for tea tonight, listening to Huw Stephens on 6Music. Pours very dark brown with a garnet glint and beige head. Chocolate, coconut and a pleasant bitterness, actually more roasty toastiness, nice mouthfeel. This is very good. Score: 7.8

Can from House Of Trembling Madness. Hazy brown body with a thin beige head. No visible carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of nuts and roasted malt. Flavour of coconut and milk chocolate with a hint of mint. Medium body with a smooth texture. Soft fizz. A tasty dark beer with a nice chocolate/mint vibe.

On tap at Hops, Crewe. Pours almost black with minimal scummy tan head and good lacing. The aroma has malts, chocolate and biscuits. In the mouth it is quite sweet with a creamy texture. Flavour from the start is roasted malts, chocolate and coconut. But after a while some bitterness comes through along with some cocoa and traces of spice and honey. Bitterness lasts into the slightly dry finish. This is decent but it does take some time to get going.
