Batch 004 - Imperial Milk Stout Aged in Apple Brandy Barrels with Vanilla Bean

Imperial Milk Stout Aged in Apple Brandy Barrels with Vanilla Bean - 14.6% ABV - 750 ML Bottle - $24.95

Batch 004 is an Imperial Milk Stout aged for 5 years in Laird’s Apple Brandy barrels, soaking up deep flavors of candied apple, sweet chocolate, and rich apple brandy. It’s thick, silky, and smooth, with a warming, lingering finish that makes it the perfect way to close out the winter months.

This beer is a nod to our Misfit Series and a tribute to Trickery, our Apple Brandy Barrel-Aged Imperial Milk Stout. But for This Reserve Society Batch 004, we took it a step further—after years in barrels, we finished it on heaps of whole Madagascar Bourbon vanilla beans, adding even more depth, creaminess, and dessert-like decadence.

Go all in on indulgence—Pair it with a slice of warm apple pie with vanilla ice cream for contrast, or a rich bread pudding topped with sweet chocolate sauce.
