500ml bottle from Saucy Pears, Worcestor. Pours dark, off-white head. Aroma is sweet cocoa, light roast. Taste is fairly light & oily, sweet with light roast, faint vanilla on the finish. Not hitting the high notes for me.

Palate - Soft carb, medium body, smooth. Finish - roasted bitter, some soft dark malts
Overall - Vanilla was too faint in this, but still a tasty porter

Bottle split at Nutty’s House, thanks to James, 04/10/14. Black with a decent tan swirl atop the glass. Nose carries roasted tones, lactic tang, cocoa nibs, trace of vanilla but maybe only picking that up due to the title of the beer? Taste comprises chocoalte, dark malt, subtle roast, more vanilla than the nose, sweetish tones. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Decent well rounded porter.

Cask-conditioned, on gravity, at the Bristol Beer Factory’s Factoberfest, September 2014. Near black with a slight, off-white, head. Dark chocolate, roasted malts and sweetish vanilla aroma. Full mouth feel, with toasty mlats, some subtle vanilla, leading to a dryish finish. Enjoyable.
