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.

Pretty decent. Although there's a unique flavor that I'm not loving, which reduces its rating.

Coffe, chocolate and a hint of vanilla. Very smooth and, as the name says, velvety.

We argued about whether this one was more coffee or burnt sugar. Nice flavor either way.

Interesting beer. It doesn’t have much stout in it and is very sweet. Not sure if this one id get again but I had to try it

Got more coffee flavor than chocolate, seemed to hide the chocolate too much unfortunately. Still a good beer just not exactly what I was expecting.

Finally got my hands on a four pack. Pours a darkish brown with aromas of coffee and bourbon. The mouthfeel is is on the thinner side with a strong coffee flavor up front and bourbon on the backend. Not tons of flavor and lacking on chocolate and vanilla.

Had high hopes for this one. Good but nothing memorable. Coffee and barrel that’s about it.

Pretty solid for the price, exactly what I'd expect from a adjuncty founders, sweet, not massively impressive but hits all the marks. A tad thin especially given the lactose, but very drinkable for for 11.1%

Barrel aged brown ale comparable to Underground Mt Brown. This is decent, a tad sweet. UMB much better.

Interesting. Brown ale comes through with chocolate coffee and vanilla all merging nicely. Tasty! Bourbon barrel does not overwhelm.

Canada trip. Grabbed this at founders on the way up to Canada. This was absolutely horrible when it was cold. 1.25. However as it warmed it got creamy and sweet with a hint of vanilla.
