I had this delicious beer numerous times a year ago as part of the taster-rack at the Big River Brewing Company in Richmond, BC. It was smooth, the coconut flavour in a beer was new to me at the time, and it wasn't so sweet that it was overpowering or gave me those sugar-induced headaches.

It's a real shame that I found out, only today, that this seasonal offering will not be coming back, as the brewmaster that created this particular recipe is no longer with the company.

I was surprised to see this as I thought it was an entry in a brewing competition.

Datky ruby with a weak, cola like head. Roast malt and a definite cocount presence. It smells very similar to their stout, and maybe this is even based off the same receipe (wouldn't it be a coconut stout then?). Taste is definite coconut, reminiscent of a Bounty bar. It see-saws betwen this and a dry, roasted malt taste. A little too unbalanced, but not horrible. Not as smooth or rich as Swan's, but this is still a solid, tasty beer. Could make a good session beer and I think this would go great with dessert.
