A traditional Milk Stout with additions of milk sugar for added sweetness. We then add cocoa powder and melted belgian chocolate in the boil and "dry spiced" with an organic coconut flakes after fermentation.

Body pours a dark brown with a good head. Modest lacing.

The aroma s taste are basically the same. The stout has a definite sweetness from the milk sugar and added chocolate. The coconut flakes only add a low key flavor. The mix is an easy drinkable stout

Carbonation is good but I'd prefer a chewier mouthfeel. A tad thin considering all that's in the beer.

Overall a solid winter stout that would be interesting to try if barrel aged.

12oz bottled 05/30/19 (2 months ago) poured into a tulip pint glass at fridge temp 5.75% ABV 22 IBU. The beer pours dense dark brown with mahogany highlights and mocha colored head. The head recedes to a fat ring and leaves a little lacing. The aroma is as advertised with chocolate and coconut, but I also get some coffee and caramel. The taste is semisweet with coconut in the lead and the chocolate, coffee and roasty flavors competing for second place. The coconut is a touch artificial. Bitterness is mild. The mouthfeel is full bodied with average carbonation and a mostly dry finish. Overall, very good. Looks & aroma are world class. I'm not a big coconut fan, so I could have used a touch less of that and more chocolate and roast malt. Do not pass on this one if you like coconut.

A: Dark black brown in color with a light tan head on top.

S: Rich smooth chocolate and coconut. A lot softer and more aromatic smell than I was expecting. Like a liquid mounds bar.

T: A touch of booze with a light roasted character followed by milk chocolate, and coconut. The flavor is light, but the coconut is a long linger.

M: Medium in body with a light and airy feel, and a sweet smoothness. Although it does come across as a little too light for the style, it somehow works for this one.

O: Overall quite a tasy brew.
