    No idea on bottle count. I've seen it in the $12-15 range for a 12oz bottle. From what I can tell, not terribly hard to find in the Shelton footprint, but I got one a few weeks back, so it's possible things have changed. I would definitely expect it to get made again, so it shouldn't trade outrageously.

    do you like stouts that have a completely overwhelming amount of vanilla? if so, you'll like vanilla shake. you won't otherwise.

    Sitting on shelves here. Tastes great, but not hard to get.

    Too bad Shelton isn't in MO right now. Would liked to have bought some of this

    Any word on vanilla shake vs creme brulee? Was not a fan of creme brulee at all... actually thought it tasted more like butterscotch

    vanilla shake is much more drinkable than creme brulee, plus it's only in a 12oz bottle. that said, i love vanilla but this beer had too much vanilla.

    Not necessarily related, but I poured Momi Hiwa down the drain after 2 sips because it was too sweet and syrupy. Vanilla Shake on the other hand..... I thoroughly enjoyed all 12 ozs and wish I had more. It was delicious and I don't care for Mikkeller beers....

    Brûlée was a drain pour for me but I could power through the end of shake though it was quite rich. Paid $13 clams, saw a ton at crown liquors #14, can be bought at craftshack online as well.

    Smells like a vanilla candle which I like, but lacks that original character of an oatmeal stout
