Aroma: Spicy coffee notes, hints of chocolate, vanilla, maybe some grassy hops. Medium vanilla adds a sweet note to the aroma, like a coffee candy.”

Flavor: “The coffee is really subdued. Mocha with a half shot of vanilla syrup. Big malt, with caramel sweetness and toasty notes. There’s hints of raisin, too. Roast acidity (barely) keeps it from being cloying. The finish is quite boozy, paired with the semisweet finish it comes across a bit heavy.”

Overall: “There are lots of nice elements to this beer. Consider it an effervescent porter for coffee people.”

“Imperial Porter brewed with Columbian coffee and vanilla beans.”
