Imported from my RateBeer account as Hawkshead Damson & Vanilla Porter (by Hawkshead Brewery):
Aroma: 10/10, Appearance: 3/5, Taste: 7/10, Palate: 2/5, Overall: 14/20, MyTotalScore: 3.6/5
4/III/2012 bottle @ ACBF (Moen) - BB: n/a (2012-202)
Clear dark brown beer, small to no head. Aroma: vanilla, that's no lie! Some bubble gum, caramel, cuberdons (typical Belgian candy, purple cones), sweet, syrupy, grenadine. MF: no carbon, light to medium body. Taste: sweet caramel start, vanilla, curberdons, bit sour, strawberries, bubble gum, little woody. Aftertaste: vanilla, caramel, bitter hoppy ending. If only this would have had more body, it would have been a 4 or more.

At ACBF 2012. Very dark brown. Thin collar. Damson and vanilla aroma. Sweet sour and dry all at same time. Some papery flavour. Fruit is good not sure about the vanilla though.

From cask. Pours dark brown to black with a small tan head. Aroma is smooth vanilla and dark toasted malty. Sweet, vanilla, fruity, dark malty and light soapy. Lingering dense vanilla and dark malty finish.
