As good as a porter can get in my book (which still isn't spectacular).

That is perfect. Smells great. Sweet, vanilla barrel. Similar level to CBS.

Founders absolutely nailed it. Their barrel aged series is so good. Can taste the vanilla and maple notes in this one.

Love what Founders has done here. So many barrel aged beers are too sweet when it’s not necessary. They’ve hit the nail on the head.....again.

Super delicious, exceeds expectations. Basically CBS lite.

Had to try it as soon as I heard about it. Not as much vanilla flavor as I had hoped for, but bitterness of vanilla extract balances out the sweetness of the maple making an overall smooth, drinkable, and flavorful stout

So light and marshmallowy. Great taste with a boozy feel

Delightfully sweet, a bit thin and the barrel aging and vanilla kill the roastiness, but so damn smooth with killer vanilla overtones.

Wow this is a very unique porter. The sweetness from the maple mixed with the vanilla extract is an incredible combination. On top of all that being aged in a bourbon barrel adds some boozy delicious notes to this one of a kind beverage.

Sweet bourbon, vanilla and maple all blend well together. Smooth mellow and so drinkable right away. Not much booziness at all. As good as I thought it would be!

Vanilla nose. Vanilla prominent, you don’t get much maple, which is ok with me. Smooth and creamy with hints of bourbon on the finish. Very nice!

As advertised barrel strong on the coffee and vanilla has a burn to it a bit thin and Smokey with a char taste

Love the maple syrup sweetness; smooth and sticky, especially as it warms.

Roasty, hint of maple, chocolate as it warms up. Like a roastier CBS

This is delicious. Can’t believe I’ve never had it before. Another win for Founders.

Smooooth and silky. Strong yet with a gentle bite. Very enjoyable.

basically CBS lite, and that’s not a bad thing if it means a significant decrease in calories. Total guess of a 30% decrease. Instead of dark chocolate and coffee, there’s more vanilla. Similar sweet, roast and maple profile. Imagine a 12pack of cans!!
