Nov 19, 2009 Bottle. Pours dark brown with a small tan head. Aroma is of dark roast malts and light vanilla. Flavor is of medium chocolate with a great vanilla aftertaste. Interesting beer, love that vanilla. Thanks for the trade JB.

Nov 19, 2009 I thought this was good overall porter, delicately Sweet, roasted malt, not a lot of backbone or hop balance, but good enough to get again, rather flat looking light tan head.

Nov 18, 2009 Tastes like a very neutral dark ale with a bit of vanilla extract. It doesn’t taste bad, but it leaves a lot to be desired.

Nov 17, 2009 Enjoyed this one on tap and from bottle on the same day! This porter might have been supurb if it had a better malt / hop balance. The vanilla is very nice, but it can’t compensate for a mediocre base. I must say, however, it is quite drinkable and would purchase again. On tap is a little better.

Nov 16, 2009 On tap at flying saucer. Pours a very dark brown with a snall frothy light tan head that diminishes quickly leaving sticky lacing. The aroma is a faint roast and caramel. Medium mouthfeel with a sweet roast and vanilla. Easy to drink a good porter from Breckenridge.

Nov 13, 2009 pours a very deep brown color...not quite black...with a fairly thin light tan head...poor retention. aroma is slightly nutty and roasty with a hint of molasses with faint vanilla and alcohol aromas. flavor has caramel and vanilla with some nuttiness...tastes a bit like vanilla extract smells. slightly creamy mouthfeel with a nutty vanilla finish.

Nov 9, 2009 Bottle to pint glass. Light black in color with a rather thin off white head. the hint of vanilla is a welcome compliment to the porter style. nice porter

Nov 9, 2009 Very good beer. The vanilla aroma makes you want to dive in, but the taste comes up a little bit short. Tastes mostly of coffee with a hint of vanilla. Very nice brew overall, wold drink again.
