Alright Everyone, this is the big one we've been waiting for. Get this, we started this beer by boiling a double mash (double the grains concentrated into a single beer) for 28 hours. TWENTY-EIGHT HOURS!!! We then started its barrel aging journey by racking the beer into Apple Brandy barrels. After 22 months, we transferred the liquid into extremely rare Thomas H. Handy Rye Whiskey barrels for an additional 15 months. After that, we treated Midnight Abundance with 1 lb per gallon of coconut and .5 lbs per bbl of Congolese vanilla beans. So let's recap...double mash, 28 hour boil, apple brandy barrels for 22 months, Handy barrels for 15 months, coconut, vanilla. Yeah, this will be hard to top.

Tap at MBCC. Jet black pour with a brown head. Nose is wow, it’s a lot: whiskey, fruity brandy, chocolate, nougat, coconut, coffee and vanilla. Taste is similar, it’s heavily sweet and is packed with notes of whiskey, sweet grapes, oak, coconut, chocolate and coffee with a hint of vanilla. It’s incredibly thick and rich but not somehow not too much (well a half a dl pour of it at least wasn’t). Outstanding.
