Dark brown, nutty, sort of a grainy coffee note. Lightish, again nutty, soft, sweet, it'�s okay.

Roast and coffee. Light vanilla. Roast and a hint of milkiness, lactose, though not sure if it has any. Black pour with caramel head. Bittersweet finish. Can.

Can from The Gull, North Vancouver
Dark brown colour. Aroma of chocolate. Flavour of chocolate sauce, vanilla, moderately sweet, and it has a good body, hints of coffee in the finish. Pleasant.

16oz shared with Alex's @ Golden Ears Cold Creek opening 2023 season, haha. Appearance: brown with beige head. Aroma: smells like a Belgian dark beers - esters, dark fruits. Couldn't find coffee or vanilla. Taste: along the same lines mostly, kinda 80-85% Belgian dark and 15-20% Imperial Stout with coffee. No vanilla detected. Overall: ok, but definitely not what it's said on the description.

16 oz. can, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma brings out plenty of medium roast coffee and a touch of vanilla. Flavour is full of medium roast coffee, a hint of vanilla, and a touch of sweetness. Nice coffee character but not overly complex. Good stuff.

1 pint can. Pours a dark brown with light fizzy head that settles quickly. Aromas of cola, roasted malts, and weak black coffee. Flavors of dark chocolate, black coffee and roasted malts. Possibly some sweetness from the vanilla beans, but otherwise a dry finish.

Poured from 473mL can. Dark brown with small beige head. Light coffee roast with underlying chocolate and vanilla. Decent.

Not bad, although the use of Huell Melon seems an odd choice, since it adds a fruity acidity to the java notes that flirts with 8-hours-old coffee ickiness. Vanilla is subdued, but, all other issues aside, an enjoyable stout, with dark chocolate, berry, coffee cherry, and mild anise leading to a medium roast finish. Way too easy to drink for 9%.
