Port Omna Shamrock Shake (2024)

Port Omna Shamrock Shake is our second Port Omna variant, aged on fresh vanilla and peppermint. This 8.1% ABV variant recipe is brewed with a range of English crystal, chocolate, and roast malts with additional flaked oats and flaked barley added to the grist for extra body. After fermentation, this beer was conditioned on fresh vanilla beans sourced from Madagascar and Tanzania before then being conditioned further on a small amount of sifted peppermint for a short period of time. The resulting beer pours a dark black mocha color with a balanced sweet chocolate and mint flavor and aroma featuring notes of chocolate cookie crust, subtle chocolate peppermint patty, and a touch of marshmallow vanilla sweetness combining on top of a frothy and soft textured mouthfeel reminiscent of the namesake.
