Darker brown body, mellow coconut, good bit of roast, toasted bread and a mild amount of chocolate. Medium lighter bodied. A fairly solid porter with a touch of roast, mild coconut nuttiness adding a touch of sweetness to balance out. Lighter carb.

16oz can
Pours way too smooth, which makes getting any sort of head very difficult. Ultimately getting about a half finger of light brown head into my Nonic. Retention is ok and fades within a minute or two. Initial lacing looks pretty nice. Body is pitch black, even when held to the light. Looks ok so far.
Nose has a subtle, tasteful dose of coconut. Very toasty, which comes across a little fatty and a little sweet. Faint roasted malt that flirts with coffee, but again - tasteful. Smells a touch on the sweeter side. Pretty straight forward, but very clean, and really inviting.
Flavor is very similar. Coconut and roast both come through, but they fight for attention, and blend well together. I wouldn’t mind a hair more coconut here, but I’m glad I can still taste the rest of the beer. Nice, but a little simple at the moment, we’ll see if it changes with some time.
Carbonation is about medium, maybe medium-high. Body is pretty smooth and drinks relatively light, which I don’t mind given the ABV and the relaxed flavor. A little sweetness during the middle, but pretty subtle, finishes with a brief dryness, and some bitterness; very well balanced. Great mouthfeel.
Extremely drinkable. I have to assume that’s what they were going for here with the ABV, and the approachable adjunct. This is silky and tasty.
Appearance turned out decent. Lacing was pretty inconsistent, but not horrible.
The coconut came out maybe just a smidge more over time, but this stayed pretty safe overall. It’s a very solid, straight forward beer, and I’m not sure there’s anything wrong with that. It’s tasty and enjoyable, thumbs up.
P.S. @BBThunderbolt, Holy Mountain is kinda a satanic brewery, so "God is Good" is most likely satire. Cheers.

16oz can (no date, but the words God Is Good printed on the bottom. Cool story bros.) poured into 14oz teku. Poured a solid black color (much more stout-like than Porter looking) with 1/8 inch of light brown head that very low retention and no lacing.
Light roast over foundational malts in the nose. Just a hint of the coconut mentioned on the label.
Same on the tongue, a nice base porter flavor, but damn little coconut.
The body was a bit light for the style, smooth, and had a medium-dry finish.
The beer had very low carbonation and that severely effected the drinkability, without the bubbles the beer was just too sticky.
Overall, needed more bubbles and coconut.
