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

Boozy. Definitely has a boozy bite. Smoother towards the end. Some sweetness to this beer also.

Better Half wowed me the 1st time I had it ~2008. Still tasty. This was the Mug Club beer for 2020.

Maple, molasses, cardamom, whiskey and dry oak with other notes of caramel and spice. Great beer for the Thanksgiving feast that is not pictured.

Side by side with ‘18 Better Half. Similar flavor profile but more oak, more barrel, and more maple. Very nice.

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

Sweet for an old ale... but warms the tummy quite nicely.

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

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

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.

My absolute favorite beer of the bourbon barrel series from Founders. The molasses alone sets it apart. Definitely more boozy than previous years but that’s alright. Thanks as always Andrea D.

Been awhile since I've had a better half, but this is even better. Thanks Jon.

Great night cap. Lots of sweetness and barrel. I think this will age well
