This long time favorite makes a long-awaited return to the Bourbon County Stout roster. Utilizing whole grade A vanilla beans from Madagascar, Vanilla delivers on all the quintessential things fans love about this variant: aromatic vanilla, marshmallow, toffee, oak, and floral notes highlighting the creamy mouthfeel and enhancing the chocolate flavors that are ingrained in Bourbon County Stout.

Thanks for sharing Maarten! Jet black colour. Small beige head. Aroma is very heavy on the vanilla, overwhelmingly so, and a bit artificial tbh. Additional sweetness. Retronasal it's very sweet, vanilla a bit more balanced, and bourbon-boozy. Flavour is heavy sweet, chocolate, cocos. Full bodied, oily mouthfeel. Long finish. A bit overwhelming on the vanilla, but still delicious.

Ta wanilia mega intensywna acz nie o ulotna, i tak dominuje. Malo beczki i inszych czekolad, zlozone dopiero w smaku, bombonierowo tak.
