It is not available all year. I have visited this brewery on the Big Island many years ago. The porter poured with a smallish head and a deep black color. The aroma was of raosted coffee. This ia very smooth porter worth having again and again. Finish has roasted coffee flavors as well. This is great everyday Porter while enjoying TV. It is not a sipping Porter. walker7727 (8), USA does not count | 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Mar 3, 2009 From bottle.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Mar 1, 2009 Kona coffee comes through in this beer. Lot of coffee notes. Not much else though besides that. Decent finish, leaves a pretty nice after taste. Again, perfect for sunset on the beaches in Hawaii pineypower (1104), Pine Barrens, New Jersey, USA

Nice aroma of coffee, some roasted malts and some earthy notes. Taste is well balanced, big upfront coffee flavors, some earthy notes and some roasted malts and a slight bitterness finishes it out. Overall, rather well done. osu97gp (178), Atlanta, Georgia, USA

Appearance: dark brown brew with medium light, whiter top. Nose: Earthy , deep roast thanks to coffee followed by barley roasted aromas. Black ,earthy with ash , some tobacco. 8- Flavor/Palate : Medium bodied with fairly frisk carbonation. Plenty of coffee charcter found. Softer, sweeter caramel and brown malts later on. Very good coffee porter.14+/20
