Oak-Aged Vanilla World Wide Stout

Stout - Imperial / Double

Brewed with a ridiculous amount of barley, we've now taken this Dogfish Head classic and aged it on oak with real vanilla beans! With a little tender love and care we foster this beer from smooth, sweet wort into the big, bad blackend stout it always longed to be. Its bold, port-like complexity goes great with (or as) dessert.

Over two years old, so the vanilla is nowhere near what it was, as expected. On top of that, the base beer is also losing its initial edge, which is a good thing. Wonder if at 4 or 5 years, you'd be able to tell the difference between this and normal WWS.

Not sure of the date on this, but still nice vanilla, just a little too much barrel at this point.

Bottled 7/6/2017. Still has a little barrel burn, more like a mellow warmth with a tiny bit of char. Vanilla is still present if not subdued. For a 7 year old beer, it's pretty good but I'm lowering my score from when I last had it in 2017 a bit.

It was hot but good. My bottle was from 2017. I could see letting it wait another year or two to mellow. Still good 4 years later.

Only can be taken a sip at a time, vanilla and chocolate-y flavors come through with am obvious alcohol presence. Gets extra points for ability to get beer flavors to work at such a high ABV and overall uniqueness because of that. A *very* strong drink.

BSBS -- #3 -- the vanilla was on target with this one, just the right amount
