Tallgrass Brewing Company's Vanilla Bean Buffalo Sweat is their Buffalo Sweat Oatmeal Cream Stout brewed with vanilla beans. From Manhattan, Kansas, Tallgrass has been brewing since 2007 and canning since 2010. I first got introduced to Tallgrass with their Buffalo Sweat on tap when Pork Barrel BBQ opened in Alexandria, VA.
A creamy and smooth brew coming in at 5% ABV, it's very smooth and easy drinking. The Vanilla Bean Buffalo Sweat poured black with a fluffy four finger tan head that dissipates quickly. Decent lacing around the glass that doesn't stick around too long.
The aroma consists of mostly vanilla along with some caramel, coffee, and chocolate.
It tastes close to the aroma with good vanilla notes throughout lingering through the finish. Caramel, milk chocolate, coffee, and subtle roast compliment the vanilla and help balance out the sweetness. Medium bodied with a slightly syrupy finish.
Score: 4.5/5 (Untappd Caps)
