Irish Style Porter brewed with Coconut and Chocolate

Intense pure liquid cacao flavors swirl with popping coconut aromas, all supported by a semi-sweet porter made from loads of our dark chocolate and extra dark caramel malt. This limited release specialty comes around once a year to satisfy that sweet tooth, so get ’em while you can before they disappear. At 6.5% ABV and 25 IBUs, this choconut goodness will have you yellin’ “Pass. Dash. Hit.” all winter long.

Seen long ago in a six pack, I finally found a single 12 oz can to try and rate. Let's go with it, I like coconut. Half the can gets poured into a snifter, let me sniff now. There is a little chocolate and a little graininess, some sweetness. The taste now, yep definitely coconut, not bad. Also a coffee-chocolate mocha thing going, not strong but there. A little thin but decent, happy to try, one and done.

Can from Village Beer Merchant. Brown coloured. Coconut and chocolate. Malibu-chocomel, but quite thin bodied. Could've been so much better with a proper malty backbone.

Can from a branch of Total Wine in Sterling, Virginia. Dark brown in colour, with moderate carbonation and rocky, off-white, head. Great balance of chocolate, coconut, toasty malts, leafy hops and more chocolate, before a warming and sweet finish. An excellent sweet beer.

Can, Legacy. Dark brown. Aroma bursts with coconut, and then some chocolate underneath. The body is quite full. It's sweet and has a lot of coconut taste, as well as a lot of chocolate. Just enough bitterness for balance. I like that they made it big enough to carry some residual sugars. Dessert porter - I'm okay with that.
