Skeleton Key Vanilla (2018) not beer for the first timeReleased annually, Skeleton Key is our rum barrel aged imperial stout, spiced with a mlange of ginger, all spice, black pepper, cardamom, cinnamon, star anise, nutmeg, juniper berries, and vanilla. Because we do our best to be multi faceted (in life, and in brewing) we upped the ante with this 2018 version and pulled off enough beer on blending day to make 2 additional variants. Must I remind you what the spice of life is? What it smells and tastes
