    A poor option at that.

    Green Bay doesn't have anything mentioned thus far besides Buffalo Sweat Vanilla Bean that I have seen

    Abita 25th Anniversary Vanilla Doubledog.

    If you like an overpowering taste of vanilla. I didnt care for it but it is very vanilla-y and not expensive.

    It was a 2011 brew, I have still seen it around in places.

    V@S, Stone Vanilla Porter, Abraxas... Not porters or stouts, but go with BA Barleywines. Lots of vanilla characteristics in the ones I've tried. Sucaba comes to mind.

    Pipeworks hyperdog is great. The bruery or xata isnt a stout but its a great brew with vanilla beans

    Finch's Secret Stache Stout is really good and has some nice vanilla flavor.

    I just ordered the Dry Dock Urca Vanilla Porter kit from Northern Brewer. It got great reviews, I just need to get ahold of the real stuff to see how it compares...

    Atwater Vanilla Java Porter. I didn't care for it much, but worth a try, you may like it.

    Tried some of this today. Like a bigger, thicker Victory at Sea and twice as expensive.

    Other than the harder to get stouts like bcbvs, bvdl, etc... i think dry dock vanilla porter is super tasty as well

    Haha came here to post that. First beer that came to mind. It's insanely good and has a huge amount of vanilla. For a non-Imperial offering Breckenridge Vanilla Porter is decent.
