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.

Everything bagel when it comes to beer. I really like the bitterness that the barrel imparts to keep it from cloying. The coffee plays a part in that too. This is one that would definitely benefit from a few years of sleep.

Solid. Coffee is a bit too forward for me though. The finish is great so hopefully with some age, this will level out.

Overly sweet and has a bit of an artificial flavor to it.

Too much coffee for me. Can’t taste any chocolate. Maybe a little on the finish.

Did not love the aroma, very extracty. The flavor is much richer and cleaner, still a little harsh on the finish but smooth overall. Don’t look at the photo too closely

Complex bouquet begining with lighter chocolate and vanilla and transitions to heavier bourbon booziness. Body of a brown, a tinge creamier from lactose. Definitely boozy, but otherwise balanced between BBA and vanilla/malt character. Little beer flavor.
