Leinenkugel Brewing Co. Chippewa Falls, WI
Notes:
Porter
12oz Can
6.0% ABV
Appearance:
Pours an extremely dark ruby red…it’s dark, but light does get through
the center…light mocha colored head did form and a thin layer remained…after a
couple of minutes though, all foam is gone and it looks old…(2.25/5)
Smell: Creamy,
somewhat perfumy, vanilla right off the bat…caramel and roasted malts…too much
vanilla smell in this one makes it feel cheap…(2/5)
Taste: Much
like the nose, creamy vanilla right off the bat…it does have a bit of a stale
taste to it that I don’t find particularly delectable…bourbon barrel flavor, toasted
malts and mild hint of cocoa come out after initial creamy blast…after taste
has a bit of that vanilla perfume predicted in the nose…(1.5/5)
Mouthfeel:
Light to medium body…medium carbonation…does have a wet feel…(2.5/5)
Overall: I
typically like porters, but this one feels cheaply done and a bit like a gag
gift at Christmas…I didn’t buy this, so I don’t feel so bad dumping it out and
looking for another option…NEXT! (0/5)
Score:
(1.77/5)
