Mikkeller Provides Unprecedented Access to Limited Edition Beers

According to a recent survey by the Brewers Association, thousands of breweries are on the brink of closure due to social distancing measures. To weather the storm, some, like the internationally renowned Mikkeller, have teamed up with online retailer Tavour to deliver their craft beers straight to fans.

With delivery available across much of the country, Tavour provides fans with unprecedented access to the brewery’s limited-edition beers.

Mikkeller began in Denmark, but now has locations all over the world, including breweries in New York City and San Diego. And, while that’s made their celebrated beers more accessible to fans in the U.S., their limited releases are still incredibly difficult to find, especially amid quarantine. When the brewery announced a limited release on Instagram in mid April, fans flooded the post with comments asking how they could get a bottle. And for most, the answer was “you can’t.”

Fortunately for beer drinkers, Tavour will release some of Mikkeller’s most sought-after creations to their online community this week. Serious beer collectors across the country need to be on high alert to seize this rare opportunity to procure a bottle of Bourbon Barrel Aged Beer Geek Vanilla Shake

This bottle will elevate any beer cellar. It’s a variant of Mikkeller’s beloved Beer Geek breakfast Stout — the beer that launched the brewery to worldwide acclaim. The brewers boosted that beer with real vanilla, then let it rest in Bourbon Barrels for 8 months, adding nuances of caramel and toffee. 

The finished product scores a perfect 100/100 on the popular fan-driven ratings platform BeerAdvocate, where it ranks among the top 25 American Imperial Stouts in the world. But, the small batch sizes and international demand make it extremely difficult to find, so it’s a highly desirable prize among avid collectors.

Even while their two U.S. taprooms are closed, Mikkeller remains committed to helping fans fill their fridges (and cellars) with prized bottles. By teaming up with Tavour, they ensure fans can get the beers they crave.
