VERY BIG BIRTHDAY 2026

£8.95

This very special edition features our signature Very Big Moose recipe, packed with cacao and vanilla, followed by maturation in a blend of rye, rum and bourbon barrels. The bourbon portion was then finished in whisky casks from our friends at Little Brown Dog, adding further complexity and depth of flavour to this anniversary edition stout.

Big bold stout for a big bold birthday! This is not a sweet cloying dessert style stout, no, this is a well balanced, full bodied marvel. Very good. Happy Birthday.
