16 ounce can into snifter, canned on 2/5/2019. Pours moderately hazy/cloudy deep golden amber color with a 2 finger dense and rocky off white head with fantastic retention, that reduces to a large cap that lasts. Thick foamy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Fantastic appearance. Aromas of big milk/white chocolate, toasted coconut, medium roast coffee, vanilla, cream, frosting, graham cracker, pie crust, roasted nuts, biscuit, and white bread dough; with lighter notes of herbal, wood, grass, pepper, and yeast/toasted earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of coconut, lactose, vanilla, cocoa, coffee, bready malts, and light-moderate earthy hop notes; with great strength. Taste of big milk/white chocolate, toasted coconut, medium roast coffee, vanilla, cream, frosting, graham cracker, pie crust, roasted nuts, biscuit, and white bread dough; with lighter notes of herbal, wood, grass, pepper, and yeast/toasted earthiness. Light-moderate herbal, woody, grassy, peppery hop; and roasted coffee bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of milk/white chocolate, toasted coconut, medium roast coffee, vanilla, cream, frosting, graham cracker, pie crust, roasted nuts, biscuit, white bread dough herbal, wood, grass, pepper, and yeast/toasted earthiness on the finish for a while. Awesome complexity, robustness, and balance of coconut, lactose, vanilla, cocoa, coffee, bready malts, and light-moderate earthy hop flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance, and no cloying/astringent flavors after the finish. Light-moderate increasing dryness from lingering bitterness. Medium carbonation and medium-full body; with a very smooth, creamy/silky/bready/grainy, fairly sticky, and lightly chalky mouthfeel that is great. Mild increasing warmth of 10% after the finish. Overall this is an awesome imperial flavored white stout. All around awesome complexity, robustness, and balance of coconut, lactose, vanilla, cocoa, coffee, bready malts, and light-moderate earthy hop flavors; very smooth and dangerously easy to drink for the big ABV, with the mellowly bitter/drying finish. Tastes 100% like coconut cream pie. Perfectly balanced coconut, lactose, vanilla, cocoa, coffee, and oats/malts; with earthy hops against sweetness. A really enjoyable offering, and outstanding experimental style example.

Taster at the Craft Bar in Destin. Pours a clear, bronze color, with a small, tan head. Straight pina colada. Coconut, pineapple, syrup, and light caramel. Stupid sweet. Medium to heavy body, wirh a sharp, syrupy palate. Absolutely delicious.

Can. Clear gold, minimal white head. Coconut aroma. Taste is coconut with an extremely sweet coconut-y finish. This is one of the worst beers I've ever had. Drain pour.

Can shared at CB. Pours a clearish gold with a full finger of white foam that lingers. Strong coconut forward aromas with lactose for days. Slimy textured lactose on the palate with suntan lotion. Light bodied, more lactose and suntan lotion with some faint pie crust notes on the finish. Not a good use of coconut on this one...too much suntan lotion and not enough coconut.
