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.

Waaaay too low a rating for maybe the best vanilla porter ever made! Draft from the Pub in northern, ky this delicious vanilla and chocolate delight is better than most deserts and is soo easy to drink and enjoy. i heartily recommend.

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.

Tap at a local restaurant - you pretty much need to love vanilla to like this beer, as it is almost all that I really taste - don’t get me wrong, it compliments the beer’s creamy body, and light hints of roasted malt, but that vanilla is sure potent - some notes of black malt and a hint of maple way in the back - rather full-flavored for a low ABV brew - just soooo much vanilla.

I’m just getting into the porters and this is drinkable. I’m not sure if that is a good sign or a bad one though. Not much vanilla note to me. Very flat w/ no foam.

12 oz. bottle. Pours a coca cola brown with a reddish hue, decent frothy light brown head, good lacing. Aroma is roasted malts, nuts, coffee, and vanilla. Flavor is vanilla, caramel and roasted malts, and a touch of chocolate. Mouthfeel is thin for a porter, creamy, and a roasted bitterness at the end. Pretty good, a little too much sweetness.
