About This Beer

The Hubbard’s Cave crew took their beloved Coco Van Imperial Stout, and let it slumber in bourbon barrels! The whiskey-caramel notes elevate additions of real toasted coconut and whole bean vanilla, for a seriously decadent Pastry Stout experience!

Tasting Notes

This brew is 100% for Pastry Stout fans — it’s sticky sweet, with decadent flourishes of bourbon caramel from a long slumber in oak. It’s rich, too, with bold flavors of toasted coconut and a thick ribbon of vanilla to wrap your taste buds in dessert-y deliciousness.

Imagine a fudge-dipped macaroon made by a Michelin-starred pastry chef, and you’ll have a good idea of what you’re in for.

Barrel aging takes the base level Coco Van to another level. Chocolate smooths out and is replaced by the bourbon.
