About This Beer
Hot take: vanilla is underrated. In a world full of fancy flavors trying to outduel each other, the mighty bean is always a perfect foil.
Coca-Cola? Ice cream? BEER? Always add vanilla.
So, after 19 months of soaking up the caramelized oak of bourbon barrels, Hubbard’s Cave knew exactly how to finish off their Imperial Stout — Vanilla Ice Ice, baby.
Tasting Notes
That’s right. Barrel Aged Vanilla Imperial Stout is chock full of vanilla beans! The silky layers of flavor round off the oakier edges of the barrel while bolstering the notes of Kentucky’s finest. Sweet but balanced, the sip washes past your taste buds with smooth, chocolatey gulps.
You might think you just washed down a white Tootsie Roll with Hershey’s Syrup — until the 13% ABV reminds you that you’re having adult fun!
