On tap at Kona Koko Marina. I’m assuming this is the right beer. The waitress said it was "an Irish stout," but didn’t know more than that, and it wasn’t on the menu. Pours almost black with a thin bubbly beige head. Nose is of roasted malt and coffee, slightly sour. Mouthfeel is watery, taste is mostly bitter coffee. Finish is decent- bitter and slightly sweet.

On tap at Koko Marina. Poured a dark brown with a thin brown head. Aroma of roasted malt and coffee. Flavor was roasty with a dry finish. Good beer.

On tap, Koko Marina. Poured a dark charcoal brown with small head. Smell of dark chocolate, smoke, and coffee. Flavor is more of the same with a good helping of black coffee and roasted notes. Finishes slightly bitter and dry. Reminded me of Cooper’s extra stout. I enjoyed this beer.

Pretty solid Irish stout here. Good roasted/burnt flavor with some coffee. Pretty light body made is quite drinkable on this warm Hawaiian day.

I had this on draft at kona brewing. It wasn’t liksted on the menu, bu tthe waitress mentioned it. It’s a dry, irish style stout with a nice roasty coffee-ish flavor. Best of all they served it at ’cellar’ temp, rather than colder (the other beers I had were served colder).
