3 Sons / Mikkeller - Friendship | (Heaven Hill bourbon) Barrel Aged Imperial Pastry Stout (23 months)
This limited collaboration between 3 Sons and Mikkeller represents a complex Imperial Pastry Stout aged for an impressive 23 months in 12-year-old Heaven Hill bourbon barrels. During the long maturation process, the beer acquired a deep character with distinct traces of wood and spirit, further enriched by an infusion of premium ingredients. The recipe features Tanzanian cacao, fluffy marshmallows, graham crackers, and a double dose of coconut in both raw and sweet toasted forms, which, combined with caramel, creates an exceptionally thick and decadent dessert profile.
The palate is dominated by intense chocolatey notes and a creamy texture, with layers of coconut and subtly sweet biscuits gradually unfolding. The high alcohol content provides warmth, yet thanks to the complexity of the ingredients, the tasting experience remains harmonious and intense. This is an exclusive brew designed for slow sipping, masterfully blending bourbon notes with the rich world of pastry ingredients.
Ingredients: water, BARLEY malt, marshmallow, graham crackers, Tazmanian cocoa nibs, toasted coconut, raw coconut, caramel, hops, yeast.
