Commercial Description:
Who would have thought deep in the jungles of Papua New Guinea and Madagascar grew the perfect ingredient to build an extraordinary Porter in Colorado? An ale that has all the chocolate and roasted nut flavor of a classic Porter, with an enigmatic surprise thrown in for good measure, real vanilla bean. Breckenridge Brewery’s Vanilla Porter. A vanilla kiss in a rich, dark sea.

Bottle from Archer Liquors. Pours dark brown with a decent light tan head. Aroma of dark toast, but not sure about vanilla. Medium body with sharp, creamy carbonation. Now I’m sure about the vanilla. Pretty present. An interesting variant. Not a style of porter I would chase after.

Pours out dark brown bordering on black with a very thin head. Aroma is of chocolate and somewhat roasty. Roasted chocolate taste with a slight vanilla note present in the finish.

I thought I was a vanilla fan so I decided to try this brew. It turns out that I’m not THAT much of a vanilla fan. Aroma and taste are overpowered by the vanilla, it’s rather creamy with a roasty malt aftertaste, but the vanilla is a hint too much. It’s not necessarily bad, but I wouldn’t drink more than one or two.

Bottle. Pours dark brown with a frothy tan head that laces the glass. Roasted malt, chocolate, and vanilla aromas. Roasted malt, chocolate, vanilla, and coffee flavors. Not bad.

Deep brown to black color in the glass. Medium to heavy typical porter body with a nice accent of vanilla among the roasted malt notes. Very enjoyable.

beautiful sweet vanilla bean aroma mixed with some toasted notes. Very dark pour with a nice frothy tan head. Very delicious sweetness of the anilla mixed with some toasted bread notes. Absolutely delicious.
