Imperial stout with coconut
We are made of many truths. The pages of reality are written by the hands of humanity. And we stand above the waste of yesterday's misgivings, armed to pen our destinies. The merger of our original candy stout with our newest realm. Made with 15 pounds of real shredded coconut per barrel and an insane amount of malt. In order to maximize the depth of flavor, we elected to work with 50% raw macaroon coconut and 50% Forestry Camp house-toasted coconut. Nothing else is added to this expose, allowing us to embrace whipped Coco Lopez, out the oven macaroons and gobs of melty mounds

Released 9/16/20; drank 9/27/20 @ the Yarchives.
Black appearance.
An even pour yielded a nice, noisy tan head which quickly dissipated; frothy lace.
Fresh earth, mild coconut & faint milk chocolate notes in the nose.
Thick, sticky mouthfeel.
Dark chocolate & fresh earth flavors up front; mild coconut & faint booze heat on the finish.
Subtle coconut, with balance all around. If anything, maybe a bit TOO muted, but overall this was quite nice. I'd have another!

Appearance: Pitch pitch black with a very thin but present dark khaki head. Beautiful.
Aroma: Coconut and chocolate galore. Aroma is very present but not more complex than that. Good nonetheless.
Flavor: Holy hell... Cooked coconut, chocolate boozy fudge, macaroons, brown sugar, molasses, toffee. It's just so rich and bursting with flavors. Insane. It actually has a bourbony flavor to it too; if I didn't know any better I might think this is a BA stout.
Palet/Finish: So thiccc and creamy like oil, but it fluffs up in your mouth if you let it sit - that's when the flavors get more intense. Finishes with chocolate/coconut/toffee.
Overall: Probably one of the best stouts I've ever had. I couldn't imagine how much this would benefit from barrel aging, it's already just so damn good. I wish I could get another bottle of this, that is my only regret in trying it.
