Venn Brewing Batch #60 Mounds Bar Porter. 6.5% ABV. 27 IBU. Venn Brewing, Minneapolis, MN.Dark brown color, rich brown head, large and looming. Altogether impressive.
In the nose: malt comes forward, and the cocoa is unleashed. Sweet and chocolatey, with a hint of coconut. Never too much so, though.
In the mouth: Coconut is big on the palate, from the very start. Coconut and cocoa, in perfect harmony. Nicely bitter, with loads of lush malt. Delicious. Yum plus yum. More richness, more chocolatey goodness. Full bodied, utterly decadent. I'm going to luxuriate on this one.
Actual chocolate, actual coconut, porter.
