What Our Editors Thought

"Sophisticated nose: layers of wood, earth, toasted and fresh coconut, subtle herbal pineapple. Coconut flavor charges forward, faint pineapple in background. Bitterness is well-rounded, earthy, a nice foil to coconut sweetness. Touches of herbal spice lurk, broadening the perspective."

What Our Panel Thought

"Fantastic aroma—toasted coconut, tropical hops—rich and inviting. Big, sweet, chewy coconut bomb—massively creamy, finishing sweet. Dries out somewhat, leaving an almost husky quality. Coconut is a bit overpowering, masking tropical-hop notes."

What the Brewers Say

"DIPA with coconut, dry hopped with Mosaic."
