Beer Review: Breckenridge Vanilla Porter
Thursday, October 25th, 2007 by Fuzz
The last time that I was in Breckenridge, CO, I purchased a sampler pack of Breckenridge Brewery’s different kinds of beer. I was pretty surprised, today, when I walked into John’s Liquor in West Bend and found a bunch of different kinds of Breck. There were some that I had tried already, but then I saw “Vanilla Porter,” and I had to try it.
My initial thought on the beer: it tastes too much like Vanilla Coke. Actually, the vanilla tastes so artificial that it’s hard to drink. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve had worse, but this isn’t the best beer that I’ve ever tasted. If it were more “beery” with less “vanilla,” it would be a good beer. Unfortunately, they overdid it.
