Curmudgeon's Better Half

Old Ale

Curmudgeon is an old ale brewed with molasses and aged on oak; it becomes Better Half after aging—for 254 days—in bourbon barrels that have more recently been aging Michigan maple syrup. As a result, Curmudgeon’s Better Half is a bit sweeter than her miserly counterpart.

Bottle share with the family. 2018 Better Half. Held up really well. Not so sweet anymore with a good barrel burn and flavor to follow.

This is wonderful! Great balance of maple and molasses, but not too sweet! One of the better old ales I’ve had. Def recommend. This year is a great one!

Don't typically log 2nd pours, but this one comes 5 years after production. Kind of boozy BBA on the nose. Bottom line? Doesn't matter, you cant get it anymore! I'm not sure it improved over the 5 years, but. Still tasty AF!
