Can from the Packie Dark brown with a hint of garnet on the edge and a decent sized bubbly off white head that slowly recedes. Huge coffee on the nose with a hint of chocolate earth and coconut. More coconut in the flavor but its pretty subtle. Pretty nice.

Can pour from trade with AirForceHops--thanks, Chris! Massive carbonation upon opening and barely able to get into the glass without spilling. Once it calms down, it's a dark, dark, cloudy brown-mahogany with light sparkle, 2-finger width crackling, fizzy head with poor retention and no lacing. Aroma is strong coconut, light coffee/mocha (increases as it warms). Taste follows aroma. Mouthfeel is light side of light-to-medium bodied with smooth, thin texture, average carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, weird carbonation issue but may have just been a jostled 4-pack. Coconut is nice but overshadows the coffee. A little thin. OK.

16 oz. can. Coconut is very obvious on the aroma. Lots of fizzy carbonation when poured. Flavor is equal parts coffee, coconut, and chocolate. Body is pretty good for a porter. Well done!
