A Note on This Beer

The Beer Geek series put Mikkeller on the map. 

Not just any map — Food & Wine named the 2X Danish Brewery of the Year one of the Most Important Breweries from Europe! You can find their brews all over the top style rankings on BeerAdvocate.

And today, you have a shot at Mikkeller’s newest addition to the Beer Geek Imperial Stout lineup. It’s called Peanut Butter Shake, and its creamy depths flow with luxurious nuttiness!  

In addition to peanut butter, the brewers amped up this silky creation with coffee and cocoa nibs. Chocolate-swirled peanut butter greets the palate upfront, leading to deep layers of roasty espresso. It’s like a mocha blended with Reese’s Pieces! 

With all these desserty flavors, that 11.8% ABV sips down shockingly smooth, too. The boozy warmth is there, but it remains subtle until you’re about halfway down the can.  

On that note, it’s a good idea to save this sipper for the end of a long day. Then, you can bask in its layered decadence all night!

*Peanut Butter Shake comes from Mikkeller San Diego, a super brewery formed with the 5X World Beer Cup Gold Medalists at AleSmith!

I love every component in this brew: stouts, chocolate, coffee, peanut butter. Something about this doesn't quite work though. Too heavy on the coffee. Can't taste the peanut butter. Okay, but disappointing for this style.

Its just a coffee stout, why have a peanut butter cup on the label if you can't even taste anything related to it?

I was pretty disappointed with this craft. Don't get me wrong, it was a decent beer. I was just expecting more of a peanut butter taste and this just didn't deliver. Tasted more like a thick and rich regular stout.

Roasty, malty, sweet, big stout aroma. Definitely sweet on the palate with a lot of coffee and honestly, not all that much peanut butter. Sweet, sticky, big stout finish.

Daily corona battle. Tuesday of meetings the last one is a HH edition. I love and miss Mikkeller. This is crazy thick, cocoa bitter and boozy. PB is subtle, we’ll see if it pops a bit more with warmth. Otherwise a tasty yet standard Porter/stout.

Solid stout but the peanut is not present enough to equal the stoutness. So it is not well balanced as a “peanut butter stout”
