BBA from Wakefest 2022
Pours dark and fairly thick, minimal head. Has some coconut floaters. Massive chocolate aroma mixes with light coffee and sweet vanilla; coconut lingers on the finish. Flavor is molten chocolate espresso lava cake, chocolate covered coconut flakes, I get a little cherry cordials on the finish. Thick and creamy, yet there is a hint of lively carbonation. Overall an amazing beer, a year old and the coconut is still there.

Batch 1: Glad to have tried this coconut dreamboat! Coconut rocks abound, plus rich vanilla, cocoa, maple, and awesome rye to balance everything out. Super thicc, old school JWB mouthfeel; super impressed by this gem!

Had in 2018 was probably my favorite J. Wakefield to date. Great collaboration of flavors and enjoyed this a lot. Thought feel could have been a little better.

2020 Bottle thanks to Eziel
L: Pours jet black with minimal tan head
S: Coconut... lots of coconut, a bit of maple and vanilla
T: Coconut and more coconut, don't get a lot of the vanilla or the coffee
F: Heavy AF on the mouthfeel, no sharpness from the carb (minimal)
O: This is a very good beer, the look and smell are top notch. I wish it had some more carb overall and I could get a bit more coffee.
