Last week, NoDa Brewing (Charlotte, NC) excitedly released Imperial Coco Loco. This is the 3rd bottle release by the growing brewery. Imperial Coco is based of the Great American Beer Festival silver medal winning recipe, but pumped up. More malts, more cacao, more coconut. Bottles have already been released at the brewery, expect more at retail this week.
This is the Imperial version of our 2012 Great American Beer Festival Silver Medal winning Robust Porter Coco Loco. By keeping the same English brown and chocolate malts from our original recipe, but greatly increasing the amounts used and adding nearly double the amount of hand roasted organic coconut and cacao nibs, we achieve an amplified version of our beloved robust porter. Rich, dark and layered with chocolate, coconut and roasty notes, this beer is full of flavor yet balanced as well. A great beer before, during or after a meal!
