Maui Brewing Co., CoCoNut Porter

Our search for good beer on Waikiki has started at Lu Lu's on the corner of Kapahula and Kalakaua. Beer here seems to be a bit more expensive but there are some jems to be found. This poured with a deep red hue to it and had little white head but a great malty roasted smell. My first taste and I knew this one was a keeper. It boastes of roasted coconut but they've done a great job of blending it. Maybe it's the actual flavor or maybe it's talent, either way it's a winner. The typical chalky porter flavor was a little subdued compared to the nice thickness it presented. If I can find this on the mainland I'll grab ya one.
