22 ounce waxed bottle, unsure on year or date. Poured into a tulip. Pours a cola brown, finger + of khaki head that recedes quickly leaving just a ring around the glass.
All I get is a huge coconut aroma. Really not much else. I can say that it is a freshly cracked coconut and not a toasted coconut.
Taste is coconut, chocolate cake, coconut milk, just a hint of bourbon and wood. Very light tartness, like from a sour mash type whiskey. Lingering coconut. Alcohol as it warms. Did I mention the coconut?
Lighter body than hoped for but lower carbonation make for easy drinking.
This is a one sided beer. Not bad but hoping for more depth.

Very good head retention.

Tons of coconut on the nose, blending with the bourbon. Sweet.

Flavor follows, along with the chocolate. Strong and sweet.

Surprisingly watery on the palate; very drinkable.
