Perrin No Rules
What the brewers say
“This imperial porter is smooth and subtly sweet with layers of flavor. Some say it tastes like a Mounds candy bar that’s been dipped in rich chocolate and soaked in bourbon. Other people find flavors of coconut, cinnamon, toffee, vanilla, and coffee.”
What our panel thought
Aroma: “Coconut up front with alcohol behind it. Like a chocolate wafer cookie mixed with passion fruit, berry, and spicy barrel.”
Flavor: “Milk chocolate, coconut, coffee, and biscuit with toffee. There’s a noticeable vanilla character as well. Intensely sweet up front and still quite sweet in the finish, but the coconut lingers into the aftertaste nicely.”
Overall: “Hershey’s chocolate syrup with toasty coconut, but very boozy and very, very sweet.”
