Review based on the BJCP2021 guidelines (style 30A: vanilla / base: 20A). Can 45 cl - Batch undeclared (BB: undeclared). AROMA: medium roasted malt aroma with chocolate character. slight resiny hop note. low vanilla background. APPEARANCE: very dark brown color with ruby highlights. medium light brown head, creamy, with good retention. TASTE: initial medium-high roasted malt notes (initial chocolate that evolves to roasted), complemented by faint dried prunes and a vanilla background. medium-high bitterness with an almost dry, slightly bitter and roasty finish. MOUTHFEEL: medium body with medium carbonation. OVERALL: a nice american porter with added vanilla.

Can from Total Wine in Sacramento, CA. Can foamed over a little. Pours hazy gold with a huge foamy white head that laced down somewhat. Med body. Flavor is tangerine and pineapple. Hard to say which is stronger. Juicy, but not really sweet. At least moderately bitter. The background is somewhat earthy and astringent. Seems to be a coconut note. Quite tasty ale.

Can pour from Valley Beverage. Hazy dark yellow with nice sparkle, thick head with excellent retention and nice lacing. Aroma is ,citrus, mild tropical fruit and pine. Taste is strong pine over citrus with malt backbone with moderate bitterness. Smooth texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Well made. Some interesting nuance to aroma but fairly conventional. Decent.

Can from Total Wine in Folsom, CA. Pours translucent light gold with a very large foamy white head. Aroma is malty, but not in that 10% crappy malt liquor way. Actually sort of refreshingly floral/citrus. Med body. Flavor is light/pale malt with a slight floral/citrus bitterness. This is actually rather tasty stuff.

Can from Total Wine in Folsom, CA. Pours clear, bright gold with a decent white head. Aroma is floral, grass, spice. Med body. Flavor is pretty much the aroma with a hint of melon. Dry. Moderately bitter. For some reason it has a delicious flavor - perhaps due to lack of pine. Very nice.
