Velvet Rush

Brown Ale - Imperial / Double

Borrowing elements from both high-end craft cocktails and moody jazz clubs, Velvet Rush takes the bourbon barrel-aged brown ale up an octave with free-flowing notes of coffee, chocolate and vanilla extract. Milk sugar aids in weaving together this complex tapestry of flavors to create a unique sipping experience that really ties the room together.

BIG coffee nose (don’t like coffee), knew it would still be a great brew, Founders never disappoints. Hoping a couple years of cellaring will mellow the coffee & bring out the other flavors.

임페리얼 브라운 에일이라니. 배럴이 아주 짱짱하게 살아있던게 인상적이었다.

The nutty flavor notes led me to the Nutella secret recipe. Coffee, chocolate, vanilla, bourbon, lactose sugar, maybe some wood chips, and voilà. Velvet.

Not really that impressed. Just a lot of burnt espresso is all I’m getting. Let down from founders :/

Founders Advent Calendar 2021 Day 3. Pretty damn good brown. Solid vanilla and chocolate. Growing coffee and barrel presence. Little bit dry and oaky. Well balanced and enjoyable all around.

#18 calendario de adviento Hopt Maravillosa. Una golosada muy rica a la que se le notan todos los aderezos (chocolate, vainilla y azúcar) sin dejar de saber a cerveza y sin que se le noten los 11 grados de alcohol
