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.

10/21, Meh, just an average coffee flavored beer. ABV is what pushed it to a 3.5 from 3.25.

That’s a solid brown ale. And it’s barrel aged.

Nice cacao powdered brown ale, differentiates from a stout clearly. Mostly cacao here and little barrel. A minus, but otherwise outspoken and crisp

Definite coffee and chocolate. I think the vanilla tempers the bourbon because I don’t get much of that. This one is cold. I’ll try again at room temp. For science! Really light for that 11.1% ABV.

Solid imperial brown ale, not too sweet but still had a good chocolate cream feel.

Bizar hoe founders iedere keer weer van een "brown ale" zown knoepert kan brouwen! Koffie, tikkie bitter en droog, bourbon. Tis geen underground mountain brown maar wel lekker👌🏿💥🤸💯

4.10pts Imperial brown all with subtle baker's cocoa, sweetened cheap office brewed coffee & vanilla profile. Very smooth for 11.1%abv, however, overly thin mouthfeel and finish. Not up to premium FBC standards.
