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.

It looks like fall has vomited on my counter. So I guess this was an appropriate beer. Smells like brownies and toasted bread.Big time vanilla with soft coffee and slight Chocolate bready notes. This one will probably be perfect with about a year cellared

Not bad for a big ole brown decorated up with pretty things. Seems to have a slightly fudgey flavor to me — I like it. Punk and Fake Dusty like this one too.

Founders remains reliable. This is a chocolatey brown ale that doesn't fully hint at the 11.1% abv within

Pours dark brown, with a thin tan head which dissipates quickly to the edges leaving some lacing when swirled. Nose is coffee, chocolate, vanilla, sweetness of milk sugar and …there’s the bourbon. Mouthfeel slightly thick. Pleasing.
