On tap at the ABC pub. They call this one Captain and Vanilly. Pours almost black with a nice head. It is a combination of their Captain Stout and Willy Vanilly. Smells of vanilla and burnt chocolate. Tastes like a vanilla milkshake. Tasty stuff.

on tap-pours a tan head and black color. Aroma is dark malt-chocolate/vanilla. Taste is dark malt-chocolate/vanilla, faint hops-slight bitter. Good carbonation.

Cast at O’Brien’s. Dark Pour with smallish head. Vanilla was quite evident in the aromas, not so much in the flavor. Flavor was still decent stout with some roasty as sweet malty flavors. Touches of apricot on the aftertaste during that last swallow. Pretty good.
