Coconut is considered a sacred fruit in Hinduism alongside bananas. There's more than just coconut going on in this brew, with a plethora of sweet exotic fruits available in aroma. In taste this transfers somewhat to giving the stout a black IPA style taste, although it's a little more grittier in this aspect, and more earthy than chocolate for me. Bought at a Nissa supermarket.

Sample, thanks oh6gdx! Dark brown, mid sized head. Aroma of prunes and licorice. Mid sweet with light body and rounded mouthfeel. Salmiaky licorice, prunes and raisins. Ashy bitter finish.

Bottle (from KCM Ideapark Seinäjoki). Black colour, mediumsized brown head. Aroma is roasted malts, chocolate, coconut, mild tart wooden tones with some slight nutty tones. Flavour is coconut, some wooden, mild chocolaty tones with some coconut oil and mild roasted tones too. Long roasted aftertaste.
