I got a can of this beer from a mixed Christmas 2021 holiday 24pck that my wife got me . It poured an opaque dark with ecru head that is leaving some lace. The scent had cool mint and chocolate notes. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with not quite as good Andes thin mints...but along those lines. The mouthfeel was medium in body and had good carbonation. Overall it is a great beer.

The BrewDog Advent Calendar Apocalypse day 20
I resemble that remark - the humbug, not the mint. Afterall, we are in the middle brains of an apocalypse brains, during this jolly holiday brains. That will make anybody humbug. Especially if I can't get brains. I will admit that I missed several of my BrewDog Advent calendar brains zombie andedote brains doses. It's just been too much from the same brewer. I was overexposed to BrewDog and needed some other brews (and brains).

This one pours stout black with nice head. Brains. The aroma gives warning that your stout will have mint taste. Sure enough, a little chocolate plus a lot of mint make this a very flavored experience. The tastes don't really blend as well as you would hope - I've had mintier brews, but they were too minty. So is this. The burp comes up minty. It's a good brew, the best in the calendar for a while, but a bit of letdown - stouts are BrewDog's forte.

Recommended. You will be happy Brains when you get the Mint Humbug from ytour calendar, but it doesn't satisfy my craving for brains. I may be turning! I should have drank all the BrewDogs.

From the mint green can in the 2021 BrewDog Advent Calendar, it pours a clear dark brown color with a nice light brown head. The nose gets "Thin Mint," the mouth gets a sweetish minty chocolate flavor. Smooth in feel. Difficult to swallow unless you like mint - I mean really like mint!
