Sweet and strong, but not excessive in either respect. Probably a good candidate for the cellar.

I appreciate the specialness of this beer, but it is not my style. Very sweet with flavors of molasses and toasted marshmallow.

The final day (24) of Founders 2020 Advent Calendar is this exclusive brew. What a fabulous closing to an extremely fun string of incredible choices. Kudos to Founders for making this month so enjoyable.

Late night work calls for a beer. Fine choice. Sweet maple and molasses are up front with a heavy mouth feel; you can't tell there is 13.1% abv hiding in there. Perfect sipping brew.

Love the molasses and maple syrup. Not too boozy. The molasses and maple hit you right away. Great mouthfeel at the beginning especially.

This is solid. Great molasses and maple. It’s got a lot of caramel and sweet malts. There is a strong barrel presence, and a growing vanilla on the finish. It’s long, dry, and sweet. I’m a big fan of this one. #properglassware

Very interesting, more complex than the barleywine, with a strong black licorice note. -
