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.

Best beer of the flight.!? Extremely satisfying mix of coffee, chocolate, and vanilla. Great coffee on the nose, all the flavors as you sip! Worth the trip for just this beer.

Wow! Initial nose hits on chocolate, taste is a chocko-coffee-peanut buttery extravaganza! It is a slow sipper due to the high octane booziness. But, WOW!

Great vanilla and cocoa notes with a strong coffee kick! The barrel characteristics are subtle and the finish is smooth and delicious.

Very good. Smoothness of a brown ale, bba is very subtle, and a tad coffee added bitterness. Certainly worth trying.

Starbucks latte in beer form. Tons of sweetness from the vanilla and lactose. Great coffee flavor and a subtle barrel presence.

Velvet Rush by Founders. Barrel-aged imperial brown ale. Sweetness, boozy, coffee, chocolate and vanilla. Really great. An easy drinker.

Last pour of this visit, and this might be my favorite. The nose is straight up cold brew coffee, while the body is significantly more creamy, with vanilla and milk chocolate forward. Hides the 11% ABV pretty well. Had a lot of fun here at Founders!

I was expecting more flavour. It's a hair flat in my opinion, but smooth for a BBA
