Doesn't feel as defining or revolutionary as the OG, has some hints of this year's base from others released recently OR that's my imagination, either way it's still a stacked coconut boozy delicious thang.

Bottle. Pours inky black, very small nearly black head, some wispy lacing. Desert Aroma, tons of coconut fudge, bourbon, vanilla. Flavor is sweet like ice cream topping, crazy. Full body. Silky.

Bottle. Black color with beige head. Aroma is super coconut, vanilla, caramel, sweet and intense but really luscious. Taste is thick, the same, crème brûlée. Super thick, low carbonation. It indeed tastes like if you took a waffle cone and filled it with bourbon soaked German chocolate cake then drizzled it with burnt caramel. Amazing stuff!

Power tasting at Phill's, bottle
Oily black colour, no head. One of the richest beers I ever had, with dark chocolate, coconut, vanilla, everything exponentially intense, and equally so in aroma and flavour; burnt sugar, marshmallows, bourbon, maple syrup, marzipan. Gently warming alcohol. Fantastic sipper.

375ml (thx, Jarred K.!) at Phill's. Appearance: very dark brown with a brown head. Aroma: huge amount of vanilla, chocolate, coconut. Taste: along the same lines, very sweet, dark fruits, waffles notes. Overall: very nice 👌.

375mL bottle, pours a very oily, jet black with almost no head. Nose is unbelievably decadent, with truckloads of coconut upfront, followed by vanilla beans, and rounded out by subdued bourbon -- that's a lot of coconut. Flavour is absurdly intense -- there's more flavour in that than a whole growler of most beers -- that's syrupy, oily, intensely sweet. Thick coconut, vanilla, brown sugar, molasses. Near-cloying in sweetness. This is really a bit much. It's certainly a lovely syrupy dessert beer, but there's not really any elegance to this. Fun to have the opportunity to try this, but it's overrated.

One of the most mind blowing usage of barrel I've seen, with the vanilla it tastes like marshmallow. Smooth, full body, perfect balance

Bottle from Tavour. Dark as night, flat. Roasty, ashy aroma, boozy. Taste is sweet, roast malts, chocolate, vanilla. Liquid nectar.

375ml bottle pours out thick black topped with a ring of a tan head. Nose is sweet chocolate milk vanilla coconut bourbon barrel kick. Taste is more of the nice sweet chocolate coconut bourbon barrel notes. Wow great.
