Vanilla Big Sxxxy was aged for 22 months in single-use 10yr old California Brandy barrels before being treated with Mexican, Madagascar, and Papua New Guinea vanilla beans. This full-bodied English Barleywine exudes loads of vanilla, layers of crème brûlée, oak, sweet dates, and figs soaked in caramel, balanced with some brandy heat.

On tap at Mikkeller Viktoriagade. Pours black with a beige head. Tons of vanilla, roasted malts, and bourbon on the nose. Flavour has tons of vanilla, charred wood, deep bourbon. Great barrel character, the vanilla is a bit intense, but still excellent.

Brown with off white head - Dark malt aroma with wood - Sweet dark malt body with fruity wood and some notes of vanilla - The sweet vanilland wood flavours with dark malt goes into the finish - This was real good
