This variant of Gypsy Outpost celebrates the delicious flavors within our favorite Girl Scout Cookie. We brew a thick, rich, chocolaty base beer before conditioning upon heaps of toasted coconut, vanilla beans, cocoa nibs and cinnamon. Sip this pastry porter with your friends reminiscing about youthful adventures in the deep woods.

Thick black, with a strong aroma of cinnamon, and a strong, sweet taste of chocolate and cinnamon. There is virtually no carbonation, and it’s so thick you actually see flecks of cinnamon. If you like cinnamon - lots of cinnamon - you will probably like this. I like cinnamon.

14% discreetly written on the can.
Pours a dirty pitch black some some bubbles slowly making their way up through this dense viscous liquid. Way too much sediment, some large enough to bite into.
Smell is Mish mash of all the flavour. Not sure I like cinnamon in beer.
Taste is the same.
Feel would be great, although almost too rich, if it didn't have so much stuff floating in it.
Damn shame, guess beer advocate is more accurate for it's rating (3.96) than untapped(4.28)

12oz can. Bottom stamp is '3175'.
Dark brown colored body, but thick and impenetrable to light. Brief and fizzy tan colored head, which disappears within thirty seconds of the pour. No lacing but leaves a film on the glass.
Aroma is a sweet cinnamon coating over chocolate and flakes of coconut.
Taste is sweet but kind of a muddy mess. The cinnamon and vanilla combine to get too spicy and sweet, which masks the flaky coconut and smooth chocolate. More of the same in the extended aftertaste, and the cocoa finally arrives as its own flavor.
More than medium mouthfeel. More syrup than sticky. Hides the higher ABV% very well. Good carbonation.
Disappointed that the cinnamon and vanilla go to an unneeded extreme.

Can with no date and small tulip glass.
It’s dark and syrupy with no head.
Massive toasted coconut and vanilla. There’s a little chocolate and the cinnamon shows up with a six pack.
It’s syrupy, very sweet, and flavorful.

Got from Beer Drop. 3/17/25 on bottom of the can.
Pours so dark that no light comes through. A vigorous pour yielded aboot 10 seconds of tan foam then, poof. No lacing.
The smell is cocoa, vanilla, cinnamon and the coconut, just like the name says.
The taste is cocoa nibs, vanilla, some cinnamon and coconut with a warming presence of alcohol. Yeah, 14%.
Mouthfeel is full with low carbonation but it doesn't need much fizz.
Lots of flavours here and they work fine together.
Local buy? It would be an occasional buy.
