Underground Mountain Brown

Brown Ale - Imperial / Double

Underground Mountain Brown is the harmonious drinking experience only achieved when our imperial brown ale, earthy sumatra coffee and a year aging in caves below Grand Rapids comes together. A team of malts complement the bold sumatra coffee perfectly, while time spent immersed in oak creates layers of depth and complexity. A celebration of the barrel, the bean and everything in between.

SUPER yum. Don't let sit for too long, or get too warm. It gets too boozy at the end. But so good!

Not much for boozy beer but the coffee in this one makes it easy to drink

The ABV makes up for the lack of taste unless you just enjoy cocoa/coffee backends with a forward malty taste.

I wish not every Stout, porter and brown able was barrel aged.

Nice way to end a night shift. Hope the 11.9% is able to counteract the coffee, so I can sleep!

Surprisingly mellow for the abv. Coffee dominates, with a burnt caramel and brown sugar flavor. Smoked almond, vanilla, and bonfire flavors present as it warms. Does not lend complexity as one would assume, but its solid

Круто, вкусно, на удивление жидко для такого градуса, но в данной ситуации это не в минус. По мозгам ощутимо шарахает.

This beer wowed me last year, so I was hyped to see it return for 2020. Strong coffee and bourbon aroma, very inviting. Rich flavors of milk chocolate, coffee, brown sugar, and bourbon. Slight boozy heat at the end but still drinks easy for 12%. Fantastic

Doesn't have the taste of fresh-baked bread I remember from my wasted youth, but a solid entry nonetheless

Lovely barrel aged brown ale. Loads on coffee on the nose. Malty, robust, oaky. Hints of bourbon. Extremely well crafted ale 🔥

Me = sucker for Founders' barrel program. They're pretty much an auto-buy for me. This is another solid entry in the catalog.
