The beer: Coconut Merlin Milk Stout
Brewed by: Firestone Walker Brewing Company, Paso Robles, California
Description (from the website): "With an infusion of freshly toasted coconuts and a touch of seasonal
sorcery, Brewmaster Matt 'Merlin' Brynildson conjures up Coconut Merlin -
a uniquely flavored brew for fall and winter. The fresh coconut addition perfectly accentuates the beer’s roasty,
nutty character. The lactose gives a rounded mouthfeel & suggestion
of sweetness resulting in the perfect combination of flavors in this
first-time release from Firestone Walker."
Would I buy it again?: Coconut-flavored beers are pretty hit or miss with me, and unfortunately, this one was on the miss side. Which is too bad, because I'm usually a fan of milk stout. But this one had a weird bitter aftertaste that I did not care for. Not something I plan on getting again.
