Beer Geek Vanilla Shake Barrel Aged Bourbon

Stout - Imperial / Double Oatmeal

In the beer geek breakfast series – the beer that really put Mikkeller on the map, we decided to shake things up by adding a truck load of vanilla to the french press coffee trick, creating a whole new dimension to the beer that are loved by freaks and geeks worldwide. Not only that, we then placed it in bourbon barrels for 8 months for a truly unique beer experience. Aromas are sweet filled with vanilla. Palate starts with milky sweetness and offers roasted malts, chocolate and coffee.

Jamen..nu snackar vi! En mjuk BA med fina toner av vanilj som skjuter på fattonerna rejält, svagt kaffe, chokladkola, läder, sötlakrits.. En effektiv kölddödare denna bittra decembereftermiddag.

Smakar som att krossa en hel Madagaskar-stång under ett guldigt-Amex och dra hela genom näsan själv.

Smells of bourbon & chocolate cake. Taste of bourbon, chocolate, vanilla, coconut, and black licorice in back. Sweet vanilla after.

Perfect stout. Smooth, creamy with a vanilla accent that doesn’t overpower the bourbon barrel. Perfect harmony

2017 batch. I had this last year at their taproom when I was in SD and it was amazing. It was just as good tonight. Such an amazing balance of oak, vanilla and chocolate flavors. I will always seek this one out.
