Ferrous Vanilla is our coffee imperial stout brewed with organic Madagascar and Mexican vanilla. We used Nicaragua Finca Mama Mina coffee by our favorite local artisanal roaster J.René Coffee Roasters in West Hartford, and then conditioned this batch on organic Madagascar and Mexican vanilla. We're tasting refined notes of dried fruit, baked granola and oatmeal cookie with the dark chocolate brownie flavors of our stout and finally enhanced by sweet creamy vanilla bean.

Can (12/02/24) from Manchester Wine and Liquors. Inky, cola brown, ring of head, nice sparkle. Aroma is earthy, roasted malt, vanilla, milder coffee. Taste is strong roasted coffee, vanilla, earthy, roasted malt. I get a bit of the oatmeal cookie/granola they talk about. Dried fruit, not so much. Smooth, frothy, soft carbonation and dry, bitter roasted finish. No alcohol. Very nice and pleasant drinker but not a world beater.

16 oz. can thanks to tfontana. Aroma is roasted malt and soft coffee bean. Flavor follows with addition of mild chocolate malts and very mild vanilla tones. The body is full, and the texture is smooth. Overall, it is well-made, but I was expecting a little bit more vanilla here.
