Toasted Coconut Porter
Orlando Brewing Partners

 

 

 

this toasted coconut porter pours a almost black, held up to the light it has hints of crimson with a tan head the disappears quickly. the smell is a full bodied porter with sweet coconut. the taste is a chocolate malty porter with a little hint of coconut. i really wish there was as much coconut in the flavor as the smell promised but there isnt. all in all though this is a good porter and the hint of coconut makes it a little different and worth a try.

 

A: two finger dark tan head head on a deep brown body, nice lacing, some head retention.

S: roasted malts, espresso and hint of brown sugar but light overall.

T: rich roasted malts, milk chocolate, brown sugar, light espresso and coconut.

M: medium body and moderate to high carbonation.

Overall: complex for the style and for this brewery. Very easy to drink, too dry of a finish for me for the taste and style. Lingers too long.
