    It's Girl scout cookie season and my fav have to be Thin Mints. So what are the best stouts or porters that taste like Thin Mints? I've had Peppermint Victory at Sea recently and it was really good. Any others?

    Perennial 17 was close but the Lakewood Sin Mint is better.

    Not on shelves yet, but Southern Tier is releasing a tribute to that "famous Girl Scout cookie" in their black water series. It's a Imperial Stout called "Thick Mint", 10% abv.
    Coming soon.

    Perennial 17 is exactly the beer you're looking for if you can find it. It's a boozy Girl Scout Cookie, and it's awesome.

    Peppermint VAS is a close second but I concur with the other guys from TX. Sin Mint Temptress from Lakewood is as close as I've had to what OP is looking for.

    I had a Mint 10 Layers by RAR recently. It hit that note for me. The peppermint VaS I followed it with was poor at best.

    No, just no. I would suggest some kind of cocktail instead.

    RAR Mint 10 Layers was a fantastic representation of the thin mint. Doubt there are any still floating around though, that release was a few months ago.
