Maui Brewing Co. - Coconut Porter

As far as porters go, this isn't a bad beer, but am I the only one
that tasted zero coconut? Don't get me wrong, I'm not looking for the
Almond Joy of beers, but I didn't detect the slightest hint of the
"hand-roasted coconut" they describe on the can... Maybe their hands
got too hot in the roaster. Either way, not a bad porter, but I'd
rather try another with a bit more character.
My recommendation: Unless you are a porter-drinker, I'd say pass.
You've probably had something just like this before. Don't be fooled
by the word "coconut."
