Even better than cake. Sweet coconut balanced with butter coffee.

330ml can. Hazy, orangey, golden colour with average, frothy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Tropical fruity, hoppy aroma, oaty malty background, notes of passion fruit, papaya, mango, a minimally leafy and papery touch. Taste is minimally dry and minimally sugary, sweet-ish, pale and oaty malty, notes of lactose, minimally diluted, tropical fruity hoppy notes of mango and passion fruit, a touch of papaya, slightly zesty hints of orange; additionally a minimally peppery yeasty touch in the finish. Creamy texture, smooth and soft palate, fine and soft carbonation. A tad too sweet, minimally light and watery - OK.

Bottled, from hoptimaal.nl Near black, small head. Aroma of sheer coconut. Sweet with medium to full body and rounded mouthfeel. Loads of coconut, some milk chocolate and bourbon. Mildly warming finish. As always, coconut and stout don't work together.

Bottle at home. Opaque black color, virtually no head. Aroma and flavor are malts, slightly sourish, wood, distant roast but always with a sourish note. Hmm slight infection it seems, could have been quite alright. Has potential!
