Oak-Aged Vanilla World Wide Stout (2017)

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.

Aging nicely after 5 years. Super smooth, still lots of vanilla coming through. Even smoother and sweeter as it gets closer to room temperature.

Vanilla has fallen out. Little bit of oak remains and still boozy. Not bad but past its prime.

Delicious and flavorful. But with 16% alcohol, this is the strongest stout I've had. And I can taste the booze part!

Pulled this out of the cellar and it tasted wonderful. Great balance of the oak and vanilla. When had fresh the vanilla was a bit overpowering so this aged quite well.

After 4 and a half years it's finally wonderful the vanilla has faded still boozy but in a good way. Now has a creamy rich bourbon and chocolate milkshake.
