1950's Dad: A dad who wakes up, throws on his robe, and strolls down to the kitchen to pour a shot of bourbon in his steaming cup of coffee. While receiving a delivery from the milk man, he gazes up from his newspaper, and takes a moment to appreciate the simple things in life. Rich coffee, strong bourbon, and fluffy chocolate chip pancakes made a dynamite breakfast for 50's Dad, but we thought it would make an even better beer. The times have changed, and with the addition of coffee, vanilla beans, and chocolate, our bourbon barrel aged Milk Man Stout will be sure to put a warming smile on your face.

Outstanding variant of an already decent base beer.
Very coffee forward with tons of chocolate and vanilla, the bourbon barrel is restrained, but does compliment the beer well. Outstanding for a low abv barrel aged stout.
