Nose is pretty fantastic - bitter roasted coffe and dried coconut flakes with what smells more like hazelnut than macadamia. Flavor, sadly, doesnt measure up to the nose. Significant roasted coffee, just barely hints of the coconut and a decent amount of alcohol heat. Smelled nice - was fairly pedestrian after that. Good - but not $7/12oz good.

Dec 7, 2009 coffee and roasted malt dominates aroma. all three featured ingredients really shine through in different stages of the beer, particularly the macadamia, which lends a silky, creamy, nutty element in the finish.

Dec 7, 2009 Aroma was charred wood,and coffee bean, and that dominated,flavor was pretty much the same,no one in our group picked up any coconut,maybe a touch of some kind of nut, but otherwise this is simply a pleasing coffee porter

pours brown, light beige head.
aroma of coffee, roasted malts, hints of caramel, hops, did not pick up too much coconut.
flavor, intense coffee flavor, chocolate malts, med-high carbonation. Drinks easy, with coffee written all over it. As with the aroma, the coconut was hard to pick up.

Dec 5, 2009 Thanks kiefdog for the share. Pours darker cola brown with an off-white head. Nose is dark chocolate, coffee, roast, thick nuttiness, and slight vanilla. Flavor is outstanding: lots of coffee, roast, and chocolate. Chocolate emanates throughout this outstanding porter. Thick body and pleasing chocolate finish.
