Thick tasty stout with hints of coconut. Dark in color with a rich chocolate like head. I greatly enjoyed this beer. I will add it to my list of good beers.

Can dated 12/05/2017.
This was poured into a becher pint glass.
The appearance had a thick black pour, sounded like motor oil that "glub glub" sound came out and showed a semi-thick dark brown close to black color. Head dissolved extremely quick confiscating the lace from the glass mostly. However, some extremely light little spots, ever so small do appear along the glass.
The aroma had a thick sweet to tropical enriched coconut maltiness up front rubbing noses with a nice chocolate malt bill, somewhat milk to dark and then a little bit of coffee bean.
The flavor leaned into the arrangment of the sweet milk chocolate and dark chocolate playing with some of that tropical to sweet sort of coconut character sliding in finely. Such a fine-tuned coconutty to smooth chocolatey aftertaste arranging in a light sweet coffee bean refinement.
The mouthfeel was about medium bodied with a smooth rich and semi-thick smooth and semi-sticky but not cloying quality rolling over my tongue. Barely any grip from any of the roasty portions. Carbonation probably could have been just a little bit more but still, I gotta say, it definitely feels like a good thick stout. ABV felt on par.
Overall, what an absolutely fantastic coconut stout. So much is in place all around to make this a superstar for the coconut stout style!
