Beers similar to Koko Brown

Kona Brewing Hawaii

Brown Ale·United States·5.5% ABV·One of 178 Brown Ales in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Koko Brown's nutty and roasted character. Koko Brown is the brown ale of the Kailua-Kona brewery, brewed with toasted coconut and named after Koko Head on Oahu. It pours a deep mahogany. Victory and aromatic malt bring a nutty, biscuit-like base and toffee, a small share of chocolate malt adds a light roast and a hint of cocoa. The toasted coconut sits on top as a soft, dry note that ties in with the nuttiness instead of sweetening the beer. The body is medium and smooth, and the bitterness from a single hop variety stays in the background of a gently roasty finish.
