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.

Otrolig mängd smak. Rejält med torkade frukter. Beska finns det en hel del av oxå.

Aged 5 years. This beer takes the aging really well. Really nice marriage of old ale, sweetness of maple syrup and bourbon barrels. Molasses has left some dried plums in the flavor. At times you get a feeling of belgian dark and rich monastery beers.

Consider it a late birthday gift, one of my favorite beers ever. Happy to find it on draft and it’s just as amazing as always. The maple barrel is top notch as always.

Smooth and slightly sweet maple and barrel aged old ale. As long as this has been around I never had it until tonight.
