Junkyard Son of Bean-Zilla Vanilla Stout.
6.3% ABV. Junkyard Brewing, Moorhead, MN.
Black as night, slim brown head, completely opaque.
In the nose: vanilla floats over cocoa. Oreo without the cookie. Sweet, dark, intriguing.
In the mouth: sweet vanilla notes hit first, again with chocolate right behind. That about does it. Lighter bodied than I like, but fairly easygoing. Yeah, I could go for more richness and/or complexity.
I wish I liked this more. Just not hitting the right buttons.
Full-flavored, yet decadently drinkable, this vanilla stout boasts the perfect combination of chocolate and finishes with the smooth richness of real Madagascar vanilla beans. Light sweetness balances out the cocoa, making this beer a delicious winter treat for your cozy nights in.
