In Scotland however, September is an Indian summer. August we get rain, September we get sunshine; one last hurrah before the dying of the light.
What better way to celebrate this bounteous time of year than with an organic coconut vanilla porter.
Sweet, rich, sumptuous, decadence.

Panda at home, thanks to SIHG, 12/07/21. Black with a decent tan head. Nose is dark malts, ashen tones, hint of plastic, cocoa powder, burnt toffee. Taste comprises chocolate, vanilla, dark malts, hint of coconut, brown sugar dusting. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, light drying close. Decent enough porter.

440ml can from Sainsbury's. Black beer with a very thin and short lived tan head. Lots of chocolate, coffee, vanilla aromas and flavours. But not much coconut, and I'm OK with that
