12oz can pours out hazy straw topped with a white head. Nose is nice citrus notes and plenty salty brine. Taste is more of the nice citrus tartness salty notes.

Pours dark brown with a small tan head. It smells of roast malt, coffee, and cherries. The flavor is pretty well balanced with roast malt m, chocolate, and cherries. I’m not getting vanilla much, if at all. I wish it was a more robust porter, but it’s pretty good.

12 oz. can from Total Wine, Scottsdale, AZ. Pours a crystal clear light gold color with a white head and good retention. Fair lacing. Light sour malts aroma. Unfortunately the taste follows the nose. Slightly soured malt flavor and not much else. Crisp mouthfeel. Light body and a little watery. Not bitter. Fairly bland. Bad can? Meh.

12 oz. can from Total Wine, Scottsdale, AZ. Pours a clear mahogany color with a HUGE beige head and annoyingly great retention. Good lacing. Dark fruit and malt aroma. The flavor is predominantly dark charred maltsand a little chocolate, with the vanilla and cherry lending support in the finish. Medium body with a semi creamy mouthfeel. Not bitter. A good porter that would be better without the cherry and vanilla in my opinion.
