16 oz. can from The Bat Cave. Pours a pitch black color with a small light tan head and good retention. Very good lacing. As expected, strong coconut aroma. Sticky sweet and strong coconut and mild chocolate flavors with a boozy finish. Too sweet. Not enough roasted malts and chocolate flavor to balance the flavor. It's Iike drinking alcoholic suntan lotion. Slick mouthfeel. Medium+ body. Almost no carbonation. Light bitterness. The 10.0% ABV is pretty well hidden, but you're gonna need a nap. Too sweet and too much alcohol.

Pineapple hitting first, then cherry all along, finishing with coconut. This is very well done, quite impressive.

Can. Pours opaque orange. Cinnamon, maple, that fake maple flavored syrup, granola, peach, golden syrup, dried apricot, intensely sweet. Full body. It grew on me a bit, but far too sweet.

473ml can. Opaque yellow orange with no head. Aroma of mango and passionfruit. Taste is sweet, mango and passionfruit purée, light sourness at the end, and almost salty as if it were a gose. Very thick. An excellent non-beer - which I almost didn't buy as it looked like they'd designed the label in MS Word, proper low effort stuff so I thought the beer might be similarly shit...
