Mikkeller Beer Geek Brunch Weasel (Cognac Edition)

Mikkeller Beer Geek Brunch Weasel (Cognac Edition) is an American Double/Imperial Stout. This variant is aged in Calvados cognac barrels. I don’t know how old this is, but I am going to guess at least a year since the coffee has faded quite a bit. The beer starts sweet with some obvious notes from the cognac barrels, slight amounts of orange. The roast comes in next but it is kind of mild, again possibly due to the age. The finish has more cognac and a little chocolate and stale coffee. This was a very nice sipper, and at this point it is something you should look for if you are into sweeter stouts.
