Southern Tier Makes Girl Scout Cookie Beer

Southern Tier continues to work the dessert beer angle with a beer version of the Girl Scout classic Thin Mints. Understandably, the Spring seasonal beer is called Thick Mint. For more details, see below:

Thick Mint is an imperial stout brewed with mint, chocolate and other natural flavors, weighing in at 10% ABV. “We made big waves when we introduced Choklat in 2007,” says Thick Mint's label. “Since then, our affection for decadent, flavorful, dessert-like beers and a zeal to venture into the far corners of the flavor world, have been the drivers in our endless quest to brew the perfect indulgence.”
