Our Island Harmony Toasted Coconut Porter kit is a vacation in a pint glass. Don't be afraid to brew this dark beer for the summertime! It will pour a clear, dark cola brown with ruby red highlights (when held to the light) and a creamy tan head. Smells milky sweet with fudge, dark chocolate, roasted malts, and toasted coconut. Take a sip. In the flavor are dark brown sugars, coconut, iced coffee, and bitter dark chocolate. The body is light to medium, but not watery. It is balanced, and creamy, with a dry finish. Aloha!
