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.

Founders never disappoints. Browns are so good. Wish they were more popular.

Founders nails it as always. Tastes exactly as described. Vanilla, coffee, and vanilla, all balanced. Might be a just a touch too much milk sugar for me but still overall delicious

いろんな甘さと香ばしさとフルーティーさが同居した香り!ハイアルのしっかりした飲みごたえがありつつ、なめらかで飲みやすい 今まで飲んだバレルエイジドの中で1番うまい

Fassnoten, viel Kaffee, Schoki, Milch, Vanille. Der Alkohol ist gefährlich gut versteckt. Geiles Zeug.

Les brown Ale c’est habituellement pas trop mon style mais alors là….!! Un nez chocolat très puissant. À l’attaque c’est chocolaté etune pointe de vanilles qui ramène une douceur. Une surprise 😮, je m’attendais pas à ça de chez Founders

Very tasty beer, but seemed a little light for a BBA. I am sure it's because it's young and needs more time to age.

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!

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

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