Funknmilla (511), Absecon, New Jersey, USA Jun 25, 2008 12oz bottle....dark dark brown , appears black at first...smells burnt--burnt watery coffee like 2-3 days in the pot...flavor is very similar to the aroma with some added vanilla extract and perhaps some soured cream...all this tastes liker it was served out a rusted copper coffee cup....body is unbalanced and even acidic and tart, which is something I don’t like in my porter...price on the shelf was $4.95!!!...but It was given to me for free...thank goodness!!
darn1207 (227), Tallahassee, Florida, USA Aug 14, 2008 12oz bottle. deep brown pour with a thick soapy head that doesn’t hang around. aroma of coffee and vanilla. thin palate. bitter sweet vanilla taste with a tiny hint of roasted malt. dry finish. eh. bretupdegraff (32), , Indiana, USA Aug 12, 2008 not a great beer.taste seemed bland with a taste of vanilla. The vanilla/chocolate flavor was strong but it lacked any other ’real’ flavor. Still better than Miller Lite! JK (2392), Twin Cities, Minnesota, USA Aug 9, 2008 Terrible. I like the idea and some of these vanilla beers, like Breckenridge, are good. This one is black and has a strange aroma of chili peppers. Some roasted malt. jackzodiac (12), Cincinnati, Ohio, USA Jul 31, 2008 When I poured it, it took on a very quick, thick, but not foamy (more bubbly) head. It had a decent aroma with obvious coffee notes. Its tasted awful. Very bitter, not dark at all, almost nothing like a porter- and barely a hint of vanilla or coffee, let alone a nice, dark, roasted malt in the flavor. A disappointing purchase. tool2scream (11), USA Jul 28, 2008 nothing to this beer. Decent look and smell. Flavor was not so good at all. Nothing to it. Very unique flavor, but not a good one in my book. HUGE disappointment.
