Ashy orange nose. Clear amber, thick head. Fudge, ash, orange peel. Medium body, soft carbonation. Pervasive chocolate notes are weird, considering it is brewed with coffee, but it’s enjoyable.

I actually thought this worked pretty well.. There's a nice coconut flavor here to go along with a solid underlying IPA. I liked this one more than I expected to. The coconut was properly balanced for the rest of the components. Nice job.

Hope Devil Grill, NY tap ($6): Pours a light muddy amber with an off-white head. Aroma is caramel malt with a hint of citrus. Taste is slightly malty. Body is watery. Finish is lemon soap. This ain’t bad, but if I didn’t rate this right now, I would forget it.
