Can. Opaque dark brown beer, good bubbly tan head. Airy smooth palate, getting on for semi dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. Somewhat light bodied dark malts for a beer of this stature. A kind of Kernel style dark oaty malts flavour with a mild dark malt cream. Coconut rides alongside everything and vanilla keeps the dark malt aspects from getting anywhere near bitter territory. A light finish. Tidy but quite disappointing. It's Tired Hands so naturally, expectations are high. The reality is a decent pasty affair, a little too light bodied for me and, no super brewer wow factor whatsoever.

16 oz can. Thin white head on top a jet black liquid. Aroma is raw coconut. Flavor shows marzipan, vanilla and plenty of coconut. Medium in body. ABV is hidden. The flavor absolutely delivers on the macaroon. Pretty nice!

Can shared by CLW--thanks, Chris! Opaque black with nice viscosity, ring of head, light lacing. Aroma is strong coconut macaroon, sweet malt, hints of chocolate and caramel. Taste is super strong coconut over sweet malt. Smooth texture, medium bodied and finish as taste. Alcohol is well hidden and coconut is strong but is too dominant.

16 ounce can from Tavour. Number one with a bullet. Opaque black pour. Creamy tan head. Sweet roasted malt flavor. Notes of chocolate and coconut. First sip is dark roasted malt and bittersweet chocolate. Plenty of coconut flavor as well. Big bitter hops come through in middle. Finishes dry and chocolatey.
