Special Cookie is a 12.5% Imperial Spiced Brown Ale from Free Will Brewing (Perkasie, PA). This beer was inspired by Speculoos cookies and is brewed with cardamom, cinnamon, brown sugar, ginger, and vanilla.
Pouring to a dark brown, you’ll get a thick off white head in your glass. Aromas of caramel, cinnamon, sugar, and dough/malts are noticeable right away. Tasting Special Cookie brings a medium body with a taste that lingers. Flavors of vanilla, oatmeal, raisins, caramel malts, and cinnamon hit your tastebuds.
This is one strong brew, but it’s perfect for the cold holiday season (think sitting around a fire). We can’t get enough of the cans from Free Will!
