This stuff is decent. The mouthfeel’s a little thin, the vanilla is present, which is nice, but not that amazing.

Dec 26, 2009 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.

Dec 21, 2009 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.

Dec 11, 2009 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.

Dec 6, 2009 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.
