Can from Bierkoning, Amsterdam. Aroma is vanilla and soft roasted malt with marshmallow, milk chocolate, dessert, coffee, caramel, and tiramisu. Flavour is crazy sweet with a mild roasty bitterness. Body is medium but feel too thin for the aroma. Would have worked better for me as an Imperial Porter

Pint can thought to be 2-3 months old A: Dark brown to black pour with plum highlights. 1/4 of head that fell quickly to a ring. Ample lacing. S: Light roasty aroma of coffee nuts, chocolate and faint vanilla. T: Bitter and roasty coffee and chocolate notes joined by light caramel or obviously vanilla. Well balanced and light on sweetness. I'm sure the coffee is more pronounced when fresh but no complaints. M: Average carbonation level, medium light body, finishing with light resin but otherwise pretty clean. O: I expected this to be a cloying mess and I'm not generally a fan of Aviator but I must admit it's pretty nice.

Can shared @ tasting. Dark brown color, average sized off-white to beige head that diminishes quickly. Aroma is quite nice: sweetish, caramelish, tiramisu, lactose, milk chocolate. Flavor is similar but the beer is quite thin and watery. Flavor is ok but thin. That said, knowing that this is a 5% ABV porter, it's quite nice. In the end, yeah, thin perhaps, but I like it.
