Bottle Shop Series Highball Drifter

Brown Ale - American

They don't make 'em like they used to... or do they? The bottle shop series is a tribute to the folks who supported ragtag brewer's across the country when craft beer was in its infancy. when beer enthusiasts sought out innovation through big flavor, in your face complexity and revered quality above all else. This series is for you: the distinguished beer connoisseur still seeking the revolution that energized the industry we know today -- that settles for nothing less then the very best!

Sweet caramel, mildly fruity, lingering bourbon booze to finish.

Barrel-aged American strong ale - an interesting combination. Very sweet with lots of vanilla, orange and bourbon barrels - like a BA imperial stout, but without the roasted malts and IBU.

Fruity orange peel with light caramel chocolate flavours. Touches of vanilla with a warming bourbon finish. Very smooth for its strength.

BBA Founders voor m'n collectie 👍 Erg bijzonder, boozy, heel zoet en orange peel is goed te proeven.

Lækker, fløjelsblød, frugtig bourbon-ale. Sød, sprittet. Banan, en anelse lakrids. Virkelig lækker dessert-hyggeøl.

This really is solidly good. It’s got the smell of a fine liquor and tastes like a comforting beer.

Following up a cocktail with a cocktail. Tons of rich fruitiness and a sweet caramel smoothness. Lands like a champ!

Heel veel smaak. Vanille is duidelijk aanwezig en ook sinaasappel-chocolade. Top!

3.8* Mooie bourbon tonen waar founders zo goed in is. De Orange peel is flink dominant aanwezig. Geeft een frisse toon aan de karamel en bourbon.

Nice brown BA aroma. "Special stuff" is in the background. In the flavor, this dpecial stuff - namely first and foremost Triple-Sec-style orange liqueur - dominates. Which is interesting and the point of this beer, but semi-convincing for me. 4.1

Hazy and very dark reddish brown colour, moderate off-white to beige head. Aroma of malts, caramel, raisins and other dark dried fruits, bourbon, oak and vanilla. Rich and warming mouthfeel. The flavour has distinct notes of oak, brandy, bourbon whiskey,
