Coco

Tap to rate

Coco is a tropical smoothie Gose at 7% ABV, inspired by the piña colada. The nose is gourmand, with grated coconut, ripe pineapple and vanilla cream, lifted by a pinch of salt and citrus. The palate is soft and silky, a sweet start balanced by saltiness, with pineapple adding zip and coconut coating the mouth. Pineapple, coconut and 10% Swiss whey go into the recipe. The parrot pirate on the label is you after the second can.

AI-generated sensory profile for Coco

◎ Appearance

Pale straw yellow with exceptional clarity and a fine, delicate white head. The carbonation is lively yet refined, producing steady streams of small bubbles that dissolve into a thin, persistent lacing around the glass.

◐ Taste

The palate is soft and silky on entry, beginning with a fruit-forward sweetness that immediately encounters a distinctive saline minerality. Pineapple provides bright acidity and zest across the mid-palate, while coconut coating and Swiss whey create a creamy, full mouthfeel that balances the beer's 5 IBU restraint.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and moderately long, with residual sweetness and coconut lingering pleasantly. A faint saline minerality persists, grounding the tropical sweetness and leaving the palate refreshed rather than cloying.
