Hornswoggler - Coconut Marshmallow Vanilla
The Veil Brewing Co. - Production Brewery

 

The beer pours a voluminous and bubbly dark brown head that dissipates at a moderate pace. The beer itself is a dark chocolate black that is actually a really really dark brown. The texture is a bit watery but it still looks like it has heft.

The smell is good. It has a good sweet cocoa note upfront followed by a moderate marshmallow with a light coconut finish to it.

The taste is good. It has a vanilla note that comes upfront and melts into a bittersweet cocoa before finishing with a mint like flavor. The coconut also manages to come out but gets a little lost in the other notes.

The feel is good. It has a medium and thin body that strongly resembles milk chocolate but a little creamier. It has very little carbonation at the end.

Overall, a decent hornswoggler. Not their best but it would be worth having one.

Flaked coconut and cocoa powder on the nose. Good viscosity; the chocolate shines, vanilla balances on the backbone. It’s solid, but the roasty malt base peeks through a little heavy as it warms.
