A dark porter/stout type ale infused with a hint of coconut.
Leading to a surprise taste of coconut and chocolate and finishing with a smooth roast.

Gravity dispense at Pigs Ear ’14, day 1, 02/12/14. Mahogany brown with no head. Nose is big coconut oil, coconut shower gel, light chocoalte, dark malt notes. Taste comprises much the same, a one trick pony, all coconut, too sweet really. Medium body, moderate carbonation, smei drying close. One trick sweetness, couldn’t take more than a few glugs of this nonsense!

Cask @ White Lion, Heptonstall Beer Festival. Black with a thin head. Its nose is exactly like a coconut liquorice allsort sweet from the UK which is slightly less stated in its taste.

Chelmsford Beer Festival. Thanks to Dan (essexcalf) for this one. Almost opaque dark brown beer. Little pale tan head. Palate is light and semi dry with fine carbonation. Tastes like a tangy Bounty Bar! That is to say - sweetish coconut with a little chocolate. Mild generic fruits underneath. Light dry finish. Nice sweet beer!
