HeadFlyer Vanilla Bean Porter

 HeadFlyer Vanilla Bean Porter.

5.8 % ABV, 28 IBU, HeadFlyer Brewing, Minneapolis, Minnesota. 

Mostly opaque, dark brown color, slim tan head. 

In the nose: roasted malt, coffee and cocoa, plus the onset of sweet vanilla. 

In the mouth: starts dry, roasty/toasty, and bittersweet. Coffee flavors dominate, more dry and bittersweet character takes command. Full bodied, robust, with a long-lasting, chocolatey finish. Vanilla flavor is here, but subtle, not dominant in the slightest. 

And I man enjoying this quite a bit. Good old regular porter with a touch of vanilla. 

This is a dark porter that has a complex body of roasted malts and has a creamy finish with a hint of vanilla.
