Fairly decent for what it is. Its Vanilla all right. I am pretty sure they use a fake vanilla flavoring on their basic pale ale with less hops. Its beer blended with the coal miners stout.

Sampler. All vanilla here. Light sweetness, watery. Like a flat vanilla pop.

light alone, great when mixed with Coal Miner Stout as a black and tan. also as part of beer sampler

Draft at Pub: Not sure what I was expecting from this one but...... A clear yellow color with a fizzy white head. The looks and smell reminded me of a vanilla cream soda. The flavor tasted artificial, full of vanilla. Very light, dry, and watery. Was like a vanilla flavored carbonated water.
