Mikkeller Beer Geek Breakfast

Not quite as rare as the Beer Geek Brunch but equally as highly regarded. When I procured the Brunch I had to go for the Beer Geek Breakfast as well. This recent batch was brewed at Nogne-O in Norway, not sure why, but hey I love Nogne-O as well. Can't hurt can it? Beautiful fragrant nose, something in between floral perfume and then dry dark notes. It's interesting. The beer is a battle between oat and coffee flavors with a quick diminishing mouthfeel. It leaves a little to be desired in the mouthfeel department, but it is nonetheless unique. Deep vinous coffee flavors with some spicy hop flavors in the finish. Earthy and dry in the finish. This beer is unique, flavorful and with great drinkability...all the markings of a great ale. Mikkeller produces some great and very aging ready ales, and I pretty much approve of anything with the Scandinavian Craft Brewers Guild seal of approval.
