Mikkeller Beer Geek Brunch Weasel

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

Courtesy MrBunn. Abyssmal black pour with a head that starts reddish, but ends tan. What it lacks in aroma it makes up for in taste. Exceptional dark roast coffee flavor mixed with rich chocolate.Very smooth and incredibly drinkable.

Bottle. Pours a midnight brown with a massive head. Aromas are fairly weak... a bit of dark malt, oatmeal, and coffee, but I was expecting a little more aggression. Flavor is a great mix of oatmeal, milk chocolate and coffee malts with a warmth from the ABV, but not much alcohol flavor.

I have to say this is a fine brew. Pours black with a tan head. Aroma of coffee and sweet chocolate. 10.9% abv is well hidden and it is incredibly drinkable. Great coffee flavor with a lot of sweet chocolate as well. Glad I bought another bottle :)

Bottle shared by Britt after MTB ride. Never tasted weasel poop before, but it tastes a lot like coffee, cream, vanilla, and chocolate I guess. The bottle actually had chunks in it. Scary. Excellent brew.

Bottle. Tasted at Ulkløbben. Black with dark brown head. Coffee (surprise!) in the nose, and on tasting, but it is not overdone. Very well integrated. Extraordinary creamy, with a looong aftertaste. Definately more power than the "breakfast". Best Stout I have ever tasted. It is warm when I drink it, and it is fantastic. Oh, and the ABV does not really show I could drink this all night

Bottle. Aroma of sweet chocolate, soft, almost milky coffee, and later the more roasted coffee bean notes, and later still reveals some pleasant alcohol. Flavor continues with very smooth chocolate and coffee, delicate in a way. There are notes of wafer malt, but very much chocolate and coffee coated wafer. Quite the treat, probably great as a dessert beer.

Bottle much thanks to tytoanderso, shared with NachlamSie. Pours black with amber edges and a nice tan head. The aroma is molasses, very smooth coffee, raisin, prune, and sweet chocolate. The flavor is an extremely complex and smooth coffee. I was skeptical about whether using finer coffee would make any noticeable difference in the beer, but it really does. Beyond the coffee flavors lie robust raisin, plum, and chocolate notes. It develops a somewhat ashy, green bitterness that’s hard to tell whether it’s coming from coffee or hops. The finish is roasty and floral, leaving and aftertaste of coffee and just a touch of iodine. The oats lend a very smooth, slightly chewy mouthfeel that is perfect for this beer. Quite a tasty brew.

16.9oz bottle $15.99 Julio’s Liquors. Pours extremely dark liquid with dark foam. Leaves a dark lacing. In other words, this is quite dark! Chocolate, coffee, vanilla - it’s all in there and more. Absolutely no alcohol taste As a fan of imperial stouts this might be the best I have ever had. On a side note - it was only after I drank this that I learned it was made from coffee beans crapped out by weasels. I find myself now wanting to try a cup of coffee made from these beans which is something I doubt I would have considered before drinking this one. Could just be the 16 ounces of 10.9% talking here.
