Can. Black color with big creamy beige head. Aroma is lots of vanilla, cocoa, coconut flakes. Taste is sweet chocolate and vanilla, some roasted coffee flavours as well. Quite bitter finish. Very, very velvety mouthfeel with a fine-bubbled carbonation. Very enjoyable!

Can. Dark brown in colour, with a tight, creamy, beige head. Aroma of cocoa, vanilla pods and coffee beans. Full, rich, mouthfeel, with more deep chocolate and coffee character, some truffle sweetness before a toasty finish with some warming alcohol. Excellent.

330ml can @ Chez Sophie. Pours black, large tan tan head. Tantalising aroma of coconut, marzipan and vanilla. Taste is pure Bounty chocolate. Smooth and nicely balanced. It literally just tastes of Bounty.

Keg at Brewdog Clerkenwell. An opaque black /dark brown coloured pour with a a lasting mid tan head. Aroma is big coconut, sun tan lotion, vanilla essence and hint of choc. Flavour is composed of toasted coconut, milk choc, cakey malts, dry powdered chocolate finish. Palate is medium bodied, little milky, to semi drying finish. Pretty balanced and boostable.
