Be the first to try Kona Brewing’s new seasonal Koko Brown.  Dave Knows PDX reviewed the beer saying “Koko Brown is made with toasted coconut, which was smooth and roasty. A little sweet, it finishes relatively dry, and the toasted coconut is pleasant, not overbearing.”  Sounds tasty, can’t wait to try one myself.
