Had this at Strange Brew 2018 towards the back end of the day. Was one of the best beers of the day.
Pours a brown and black blend that has more black to it than the junior mint version. The aroma is mostly chocolate, didn't really pull coconut out of the aroma.
Taste does impart coconut. The chocolate is still the big dog in the fight, but coconut is respectable here. The body isn't all that roasty, certainly all that chocolate and sugars will temper a roasted malt beer. Its relatively light, they didn't go all imperial double porter on this one.
I dunno, being a fan of mounds/almond joy, I feel a little positively biased on this one. It is a one trick pony, but its that one trick I really dig so would bang again is my official vote.
