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.

Extremely decadent. Maybe best enjoyed in smaller serving but delicious

Not smooth like the name "Velvet" implies...it is a pretty boosie mash up of a thin coffee forward stout with hints of chocolate, vanilla, carmel, and cinnamon. Too much going on, and not pleasant on the palate.

Excellent like most of Founder's BA offerings. Lots of coffee but not really as creamy as expected with the milk sugar. Lighter than most of their BA beers as would be expected of a brown ale.

Chocolate forward, smooth bourbon finish, definitely high horsepower without the burn.

> 4.00 < 4.25 very coffee forward. Vanilla and some sweetness come out as it warms. Not much bourbon barrel.

Thanks PD for this one. Absolutely amazing. An exceptional Imperial Brown Ale (11.1%) aged in Bourbon barrels. Coffee, chocolate and vanilla shine. This is the truth.

A smooth flow of multiple flavors that come through simultaneously and finish with a sharp aftertaste

Chocolate and coffee aroma. Smooth with coffee, then chocolate & vanilla that melted away to a sweet finish. I don't get any bourbon on the taste however.
