The Dark Druid - Salted Caramel
The White Hag Irish Brewing Company

look: two finger creamy off white head with good retention, lots of lacing, beer is a very dark mahogany colour, hard to see but seems to be a few bubbles rising through it.

smell: my initial thought was coconut soap or hand cream or something like that, but it has a pretty pleasant aroma after that initial explosion of coconut, lot of cocoa powder, milk chocolate, caramel, quite sweet, not a lot of malt flavour, a touch of treacle, golden syrup.

taste: yeah it’s hard not to think that you’re drinking hand cream, the coconut flavour mixed with the milky creamy chocolate is just outright unpleasant, but some of the lone chocolate notes are actually nice enough, there are some treacle and molasses flavours, light smokey malt flavour, quite sweet of course, you get those pastry flavours, nice little bit of bitterness on the finish, but the flavours are so poorly balanced as the coconut just crushes that all the nice flavours there.

feel: medium bodied, light to medium carbonation, creamy and sticky, drinkable after that punch of coconut subsides.

overall: i should say that i do usually like coconut flavoured foods and drinks, but the coconut here is just so jarring, but to be honest after you acclimatise for it the beer becomes somewhat nice, but still, hand cream. i don’t really know how to rate this beer to tell the truth.

Can. Pours very dark brown. The bubbly head diminishes quickly. Looks on the thin side. Cola like.
Very sweet caramel aroma. Nothing else.
Salted caramel indeed upon tasting. Danish pastry.
Soft carbonation. Sticky.
Far too monochrome.
