Nov 30, 2007 Pours a deep deep mahogany. Caramel and vanilla nose. Intense vanilla flavor, and that is a good thing. It seems just right. Very smooth and palatable. My favorite vanilla porter.

Jan 28, 2008 This beer has a very nice/ coffee vanilla smell as well as taste that is apparent immediately. Dark appearance with no head to speak. Not as thick as I expected, roasted nut aftertaste
Overall, a good beer. I would get this again

Apr 24, 2006 12oz bottle. Dark brown hue. Lacing white head. Sweet vanilla malty nose. Dark chocolate. Slight coffee aroma. Reminds me of chocolate cake. Very nice! Immediate coffee flavor. Sugary caramel and fig notes. Pronounced vanilla flavor. Finish is mildly hoppy and slightly bitter. I thought that this was a quality product. Easy and delicious!

Mar 1, 2006 It had a spare head. The color was black. There was a vanilla and chocolate taste and smell. The beer had a nice smooth finish.

Jun 10, 2007 Pours a ruby/brown with a creamy, tan head. The nose is of roasted malts, toffee and vanilla, but is somewhat muted. The mouthfeel is full-bodied, creamy and soft with a fairly clean finish for a porter. The flavor is roasted malts, vanilla and cocoa with a pleasant roasted finish. Having been pretty disappointed with the Breckenridge offerings that I’ve sampled to this point, this one was a pleasant surprise. If you love vanilla, like I do, give it a try.

Feb 9, 2008 Purchased in Breckenridge sampler pack. Nice aroma of chocolate and vanilla. quickly disappearing head that turns into a white ring around the outside of the glass. Pours a dark brown. Taste is very smooth with taste of vanilla and chocolate. Aftertaste is quite pleasent as well. I would purchase this again.

Jun 5, 2008 A friend ordered this and i gave it a try... i was really surprised. This stuff was actually really good and had a great vanilla aroma and flavor. I’m a bit new to the porter style, but this was a very good beer.
