Mikkeller Beer Geek Brunch Weasel

Mikkeller
Brewed at Nøgne Ø
Style: Imperial Stout
Copenhagen V, Denmark

Bottle... Poured deep brown nearly black with a light brown head. Roasted coffees and a little bit of booze on the nose. Great tasting brew with a big coffee profile and smooth, alcohol sweetness to counter. I wonderfully bold brew.

a superb beer, something of a concept sell because of the coffee sort, but still extremely flavorful. Chewy, thick, creamy mocca colored head. A meal in a bottle. One of mikkellers finest.

A deliciously jet black pour with a filthy brown head that leaves nice tan lacing. Aroma is burnt toast and coffee, but some sweet vanilla, oak and dark fruit notes. Flavor is just shockingly strong coffee and chocolate flavor, and astringently bitter. Chewy mouthfeel, finishes like you just ate unsweetened chocolate covered coffee beans. This is everything an imperial stout should be, nothing it’s not. Unless you don’t like coffee, but then why the hell would you buy this beer?

bottle thanks to ericandersnavy. black with a khaki head. nose is ummm, coffee and roasted malts perhaps? thickness is great and the coffee hangs around for a long time with the roastiness coming in to visit in the end.

Incredibly thick and chewy. Very rich and dark. For what I remember, it tastes like Beer Geek Breakfast only thicker and heavier. No taste of shit. Just dark, roasted coffee. Slight tart taste follows. Very intense.

Originally reviewed 2/2/2009... Imperial pint into a Duvel tulip. ’How ’bout that...big 2-finger bready maple candy head with some muffin-like tunnels. Head retention is solid with nice lacing. Tops a milk-to-dark chocolate body that has some viscosity to it. This looks solid. There’s some nutty booze to this deal. Austere, dry coffee is powerful but there’s a milkiness to the roasted chocolate malt. Only minimal tannins from any patent in there. A little hop pine and grass counter the nutty texture. The sensations from the nose transfer to taste - very well done. What’s added is a bit of sweet brown sugar booziness with a touch of raisins. Reminds me of an espresso with a hint of anisette. A little hot right now. Nicely put together...silky, nutty and a little dry. However this may need some time ’cause the alcohol sweetness does create a little burn. Look out for this one - it has some heft and a big bite. Sip it, don’t rip it. PS Don’t read the label until you drink this...you’ll know what I mean.
