Tahitian vanilla beans layer this bold imperial porter with beautiful complexity. Espresso, chocolate, vanilla and toasted bread scents fuse together for a powerful, tightly woven aroma. On the tongue, bitter malts skirt the sides as chocolate runs down the middle; toasted malts add heft to the silky, creamy mouthfeel. Vanilla snakes through the profile, connecting with the chocolate as bitterness keeps the sweetness in check. A timely dry finish wraps up the swallow as alcohol warmth settles in.
