Black in color. Wow big head, supported itself probably an inch above the rim when poured. Slowly diminished and left a slight lacing. Aroma is bold, a little fruity and malty. Also was the flavor, bursting with sweet chocolate and vanilla. A little sweet. Coffee flavor is evident, but not too much, which is good. This beer literally got better with every sip I took. Well balanced for an interesting overall taste. This is a totally unique flavor to me, and I really enjoyed it. I don’t understand how this is rated only 3.1

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!

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.

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.

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.
