And the beer inside should also be summery! From Hawaii maybe? The argument for the use of cans is on the side: easier to control temperature and protect from light, cans are lighter to transport than bottles, aluminum is more recycled (recyclable?) than glass. OK, then.
Despite the name, the coconut does not make itself known immediately. The beer is dark, like a good porter, a little bit reddish in sunlight. It's very frothy at first, but soon settles down. It smells earthy and emits only the barest notes of sweetness. The taste does not disappoint. It's pure porter at first, but then the coconut rises to smooth over the bitterness, making a pleasant mouthful. The taste remains very subtle, which I think is a mark in its favor. A strong coconut flavor would make it seem artificial, but that hint in the background is enough to be noticed and support the image of naturalness projected by the can.
