About this beer

Drekker Brewing Co.’s VIP (Very Important Pistachio) is a 16.6% ABV imperial milk stout brewed in Fargo, North Dakota. The label artwork features a striking, ornate design of swirling gold filigree framing a whimsical, green pistachio character. This robust stout’s gimmick lies in its unusual and decadent flavor profile, built upon a foundation of pistachio, cacao nibs, and lactose. The addition of lactose imparts a creamy sweetness, balancing the intensity of the dark malt base and cocoa, while the pistachio lends a subtle, nutty complexity that doesn’t overwhelm. It’s a product of Fargo Brewing Company and intended for important occasions.

The beer presents a deep, dark appearance typical of imperial stouts, promising a rich and full-bodied experience. Despite its high alcohol content, the lactose and flavor additions contribute to a surprisingly smooth texture and approachable character, creating a dessert-like indulgence within a strong stout framework. The label explicitly states it is a Dubai-style chocolate milk stout, hinting at a particularly luxurious and intense take on the style.
