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.

If you take a whiff, you might think you’re about to drink a chocolate liqueur, or possibly an alcoholic mocha. There’s a buzz around the tongue, along with tastes of cola, dark chocolate, and chicory. A unique brown ale that packs a punch.

So much going on here. Taste the body of the brown ale right away. Then coffee, chocolate, vanilla, and then finally the bourbon. 11.1% abv, and no boozy flavor. This is fantastic.

Really well integrated and balanced. Just the right amount barrel (subtle) and really like seeing this sorry of thing as an imperial brown rather than the typical stout, love them as I may.

Only way to drink brown ales is to add a ton of adjuncts and bourbon. Coffee is good but everything else feels muted. Body is pretty thin too.

Solid brown with coffee and vanilla notes. Lacking barrel presence.
