Dark brown body, creamy foam with lasting coverage and lacing. Arcs of drippy lace.
Aroma has a lot of fruity esters, minimal roast malt.
Plum, toffee, and coconut come through as it warms.
Taste is astringent, some tobacco leaf, mild leather and fruit. Not getting much coconut. Astringency is borderline harsh, there are some interesting nuanced flavors but they get steamrolled by the astringency.
Will give it another shot if a different batch.

Look: Deep brown/copper.
Taste: Nice porter with some chocolate and coconut notes balanced with the malt.
Feel: Not too heavy, which I enjoy. Too many porters out there are more like stouts.
Enjoyable, I would drink more.
