A porter this thin is kinda doomed to mediocrity. Lots of vanilla and sweet chocolate, but a bit of a muddle.

This didn’t really impress me..........
It’s basically the cobbelstone stout, with a big of vanilla in the nose, and a bit more chocolate in the finish. Really there isn’t much more here. I was only able to find vanilla in the aroma, and the rest was par for the course in a basic porter. Roasty, chocolate, and some coffee in the finish. A nice ber, but i was expecting more.

Roast, bitter, green peppers, raw vanilla flower

Can shared by Nelson at Gents Bierfestival, cheers man! Lightly lacing, thick and very dense, creamy, pale yellowish beige head, very dark chestnut brown colour bordering on black. Aroma of very strong, almost overpowering vanilla (as in vanilla ice cream or vanilla extract), chestnut cream sauce, chocolate ’truffles’, hazelnut paste, some iron, raw spinach, haemoglobin. Sweet, very creamy onset, unmistakably on nitrogen like a can of Guinness with a widget in it; in contrast with this silkiness, mouthfeel is thin and feels undercarbonated, so I guess the nitrogen has already volatilized a bit during its long journey from Canada to Belgium. Nutty malt sweet body, bit chocolatey, with growing vanilla presence retronasally, eventually dominating the finish; tad metallic. Brief herbal hop bitter touch in the end. Straightforward and relatively simple, but I do love vanilla so this could hardly go wrong, I guess - just too bad for the thin, undercarbonated mouthfeel.

Can. Fizzy can. Can exploded all over the floor, luckily I got to the sink in time. So it’s got a pretty good creamy head, not great, bright dark brown body. Aroma is artificial vanilla and malt notes, definitely macro smells there in terms of porter stuff going on. Flavour is marble cake, hints of chocolate, lots of vanilla as promised. Sweet finish, no crispness. Not especially exciting but a good safe choice for people afraid of darker beers.

Full bodied with a creamy nitrogen head. The vanilla is the dominant flavour, but not overpowering, overall really nice beer. Drank in Toronto airport. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

440ml can. Pours a clear, dark brown with a reddish hue and a large, creamy, long lasting, tan, nitro head that laces. Sweet aroma of vanilla cream coffee and caramel. Sweet vanilla flavour with roasted malt, caramel and dark chocolate with a light bitter, coffee finish. Light body with a smooth, creamy texture and soft, almost flat carbonation.

Sampled from a 16 oz can this beer poured a very dark brown color with orange highlights and a medium sized creamy tan head that lingered and left good lacing. The aroma was sour caramel, toasty malts and vanilla. The flavor was sour caramel, vanilla, toasty malts, malted milk and marzipan. Long finish. Moderately full bodied and smooth. Solid.
