Day 1 of Taste-Mas 2015: Mill Street Vanilla Porter 440 ml

Mill Street Vanilla Porter has been a cult favourite in our brewpubs every winter for the past four years. brewed with Washington state nugget hops, our house ale yeast culture & pure natural vanilla extract, vanilla porter is nitrogen-charged to pour a Thick, tight head with a creamy texture & body. Our vanilla extract is cold pressed from vanilla orchid bean pods giving it over 250 individual flavour notes (conventional hot extraction yields 50) resulting in a captivating depth of flavour and breadth of character.

A whimsical design that is another winning Nitrogen-charged combination from our brewery. Fantastic cold weather beer, this porter has been a winter time favourite at our Toronto pub since 2009. Using the same widget can technology as our Cobblestone Stout, this beer is now available to drink at home as well. The use of porter styles to make flavoured beers is a classic signature of North American craft breweries and I think our Vanilla Porter is one of the best. Understated and complex, the character of the vanilla has a lot to do with the character of this beer. My dad used to grow orchids and now I do in a greenhouse at home. Friends who have followed my career in the brewing industry since 1986 laughed when they realized that I had finally made a beer out of orchids! Funny where inspiration comes from! 440 ml, 5.0% alc./vol.
