An Imperial Banana Coconut Chocolate Vanilla Cupcake Stout
We call this a Cupcake stout for short, but for real it’s an Imperial Banana Coconut Chocolate Vanilla Cupcake Stout! No extracts were harmed in the making of this one, but instead, this beer was a labor of love. Ripening and hand peeling 800 lbs of bananas was no joke! Outside of that, there’s all the coconut we had to toast, the Madagascar vanilla beans that we scraped, the cacao nibs that were broken up, and then the beast of a base beer that has taken us a long time to dial in to it’s current delectableness.

Pours like most imperial stouts. Deep color but not exceptionally, on the flatter side. Nose is full of banana and coconut. Flavor is overripe banana, in a good way. Definitely sweet, but not overly so. Not notably syrupy at all. Finishes with a hint of coconut. Delicious. Best banana beer I've ever had, wish I had bought more.
