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.

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

Sweet and roasty with vanilla and coffee beans. Light and smooth with full of flavor. Runs a bit too sweet for me but tastes like a vanilla latte

All advertised flavors present. Noticeably high ABV. Apparently I'm just not a porter fan.

A little thinner body in the bottle compared to the draft I had first. Very smooth. Carbonation almost seems a little to fine and stinging.

Chocolatey coffee, sweet notes of vanilla, and a nice subtle but boozy finish.

Lots of coffee up front. Bitter. Some chocolate. Barrel ages is on the finish with a sweet cocoa. Complex and confusing.

For a brown ale it’s impressive. However as a stout I think this would of been out of this world. Subtle sweetness. Aroma is off the charts and dessert like. Light and a bit thin for the ABV. Torn on this. Good not great though.
