WeeHeavySD (1839), San Diego (Hillcrest), California, USA Feb 12, 2008 1/1/08 At the BrewPub with Bikesandbeer after a day’s drive from Portland, Brewery 5 of the trip. Seasonal. Pours black with a off white ring. No nose to speak of. Taste is ns a nice vanilla could be richer though. ABUSEDGOAT (1917), California, USA Jan 17, 2008 Black pour with a light tan head. Aroma is huge vanilla extract with very minor porter notes. Darker malts play a minor role, but overall it’s a 1 dimensional vanilla bomb. SuzyGreenberg (1028), Seattle, Washington, USA Jan 14, 2008 sampled @ brewpub - nitro tap; jet black with slight tan head; not much vanilla in the aromas, but it comes through in its creamy texture; roasted malts and slightly mild; drinks silky smooth
