Rocklin, California
What Our Editors Thought
"Toothy, peanut-buttery nose, rich roast, bright coconut. The sip is sweet, rich, dark—chocolate-coconut, coffee roast, and vanilla. Rich contrasts accentuate bold sweetness for maximum effect."
What Our Panel Thought
"Metric ton of coconut aroma, with light nutty coffee and chocolate. In flavor, sweet dark chocolate, coconut, and vanilla. Slightly cloying, but dark-chocolate malt and light roast help cut through the crazy richness."
What the Brewers Say
"Treated with ... raw coconut, half-pound per barrel of vanilla beans, and finished on hazelnut coffee."
