3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20Bottle. Aroma of chocolate and malts but not strong at all. Pours black with no head to speak of. Love the pronounced vanilla taste. A bit thin for a porter but still good.

2.5 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
12oz bottle pours a dark brown/black with a medium khaki head. Only vanilla extract in aroma. Taste basically of just vanilla with a slight coffee bitterness as the palate fades. Very underwhelmed.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Pours dark. Smells of vanilla. Taste a slightly weak, mostly vanilla. Palate is rather light. Not a great beer but a good sessionable beer.
2.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
The taste is a bit artificial, too much vanilla overwhelms the porter. Kind of harsh bite to it too.
1.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 6/20
12 oz bottle pour deep brown with a tan head. Aroma of roasted malts, coffee and vanilla. Taste is sweet vanilla and coffee. Too much vanilla.

2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Smells like vanilla extract. Tastes like vanilla extract. No coffee flavor in this beer what so ever. Very one note. Note good.
2.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
12 oz bottle, Whole Foods. Dark cola pour; light brown, fizzy head turns to a small ring and leaves virtually no lacing. Aroma has enough vanilla to knock you on your ass; chocolate and caramel; roast and coffee are present but quite subtle. Flavor makes the chocolate clearer, and retains a lot of vanilla; finish only shows slight bitterness. Mouthfeel thin to medium-thin. Plenty of much better beers in this vein.

Bottle split with wife pours black with a foam tan head. Nose of coffe with french vanilla coffeemates creamer. Taste has slight roast but is mostly vanilla extract. Very sweet.

Sample at brewery. Nice chocolate and roasted malts, just a little vanilla to throw it off, but in a good way. Solid.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
What a nice desert. It strikes the palate with a blast of vanilla that surrenders to Porter perfection. Nice.
2.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
beer is very light to taste. lots of vanilla smell and taste with a bit of coffee taste to the finish. not a beer id buy again, but also not a beer id say no to if offered.
