I'm interested in trying to acquire a couple bottles of BA Vanilla Shake but have never seen it in stores. What does this beer typically cost and what is the availability?
Im not 100% sure and its really expensive but i think you have to order it from here. http://shop.mikkeller.dk/shop/beer/mikkeller-beer-geek-vanilla-shake/ Maybe some places get a little bit to sell but i don't think its generally on the shelf anywhere. Am i about right on this @F2brewers ? <----Obi-Wan Kenobi
Thanks for the info! A $90 4-pack is a crazy thing and that doesn't even factor shipping. I'll definitely make trading for a bottle a priority so I can at least try it.
It's $23/bottle, and if you order one, it's $40 incl. s/h. Cheapest way to get it is by ordering 6, which still comes to ballpark $35/bottle. I've traded it many times, always for $30 worth of beer in return.
Yes, my young padawan...I've heard of it being available a few places, mostly in the EU, but most people purchase it online or trade for it.
It´s a pain in the a$$ to get but if you´re into big sweet stouts it´s right up there with the best of them. I was in Denmark recently and disappointed as I couldn´t get any. However they´re back in stock on the website this week. Free shipping in Europe if you buy a bunch. I picked up a few of the BG Dessert to try aswell since there are no ratings yet. Anyway, I´ve seen a few on the trade forum. I´m sure you could find something local to put up for one.
Have you got in shipped to NJ from that website listed below no problems? I am interested but hesitatnt with price and any shipping issues.
yes, 3 separate orders, no issues I just checked, it's $200 total for 6 bottles, incl. s/h, so $33/bottle
how did the box come? anything denoting its alcohol. I would have to ship to PA and since PA sucks at everything alcohol related!
oh hmm...good question. I can't remember if I had to sign for it or not. It wasn't packed very well, that's one thing lol
LOL i wonder how the DL mustard tastes? i had the ice cream at DLD but i havent ever seen the mustard.
I`d be grateful just to have a sip of the beer never had it.....but I guess the mustard could be the dirty younger sister worth a lonely night!
That just blows my mind! In your opinion do you think it's worth it? How does it compare to limited America BA Stouts?
@sunnrider sent me a bottle as an extra. I loved it. Whether it's worth it to you...very subjective. But I was happy to have tried it.
and they're 12oz bottles. one of the most expensive beers by the ounce that said, it's an awesome beer, has a really unique feel to it, like a vanilla milkshake. it is, IMO, the single best beer Mikkeller has ever made and easily stands up to many of the BA stouts. but at $2.75/oz...
They're vastly different beers, but for my tastes I like this better than BVDL. And most people would be clawing their way to an ATM to spend equivalent money on BVDL. The mouth-heft of BA Shake cannot be denied.
