2019 batch.
This one pours a dark black color, with a small head, and not much lacing.
I'm not sure whether or not this has fallen off at all in the ensuing years since release, but all I can see now is that it tastes good. There's almost a s'mores type flavor, or a sort of sticky coconut maple granola type flavor, with a small smattering of vanilla. The base stout is quite chocolatey and rich and creamy. There's a really nice and solid hit of bourbon oak spice and some boozy caramel.
This is medium bodied, with no real booziness, and a nice creamy and rich mouthfeel.
This is perhaps the best beer series that Westbrook puts out, even better than all of the Mexican cakes.

650 mL bottle. Black body. Smells of maple, bourbon, and coconut. Tastes of coconut, maple, tingly bourbon. Sweet chocolate. Vanilla in the finish. Boozy and sweet. Tasty, but very sweet.

Smells like a mild sweet coconut drink. Nice coconut taste - maple isn’t too prevalent just adds a little sweetness. Great body that is thick but not sludgy. Balanced beer that I thoroughly enjoyed on tap at the brewery!

L: Had this beer on-tap at Westbrook's tasting room, poured into a 10 oz. glass. Had a coal black color and a thick, opaque consistency. There was a quarter inch of foamy, tan-colored, fairly long-lasting head. Not much lacing to speak of.
S: A very good aroma of chocolate, malt, coconut, maple syrup, and booze.
T: Tasted of a decent amount of the advertised coconut (kind of sweet), a good shot of bourbon (and its accompanying barrel), a decent bit of chocolate (always a good thing, some malt (present throughout, but overpowered by the other elements), and some maple syrup. This is a thick, sweet, and complex flavor. Tasty stuff.
F: A below average amount of carbonation with a smooth and silky finish. Medium- to full-bodied.
O: This beer isn't as strong as Westbrook's other stouts, but it's still well made. Drinkable.
