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.

12 beers of Christmas Day 5. Extremely mellow. Really nice having the woodiness of the oak without any bourbon notes. Lets the core of the beer shine through. Mild impression of vanilla but subsumed by the oak. No burn from the alcohol.

Aged well but not as good as fresh, imo. The sharp edges have softened but there’s a hint of soy sauce this time around. Otherwise, it’s a chocolate vanilla boozy beast (as it’s meant to be).

Malty, roasty, with nice vanilla finish

Infinity better than it was when fresh. Vanilla has integrated well and stout is much more rich and mellow than when it was fresh. Seems with dogfish head stuff, you just need to buy it and forget about it for about 5 years.

This beer has aged magnificently. Tons of nilla still and way too mellow for 16+. First fireside beer of many under the gazebo.

Bottled 6/15/17. Almost 6 yrs old. Let's see how she aged and tastes. Picked this up in Milton at the brewery. Oak, vanilla, a little sweet, chocolate, not very boozy but damn delicious.

Had this six years ago. It's boozier now. Hint of dark berries. Still delicious at this age. More umami now that it's aged.

Perfect one to drink while at the ski lodge in western Maryland overlooking the mountain while it’s snowing out. Love the bourbon and vanilla flavoring. 16%ABV
