review of Howdy Porter (Vanilla Bean) by from

Ratings (1-5 scale):
Look: 4.75 Aroma 4.5 Flavor 4.5 Mouthfeel 4.75 Overall: 4.75

(One important note - this is a different beer than American Solera's regular Howdy Porter that is a coconut porter with a higher ABV)

I poured this from a can into a pint glass. Excellent chocolate aroma. Very smooth mouthfeel. Very dark with a tan head. This one reminded me some of Breckridge's Vanilla Porter, except this was maybe a little smoother.

Strong recommendation.
