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.

Day three of the advent calendar. Everything they’d said it would be. Founders is dead on with their adjuncts.

Not really that impressed. Just a lot of burnt espresso is all I’m getting. Let down from founders :/

The nutty flavor notes led me to the Nutella secret recipe. Coffee, chocolate, vanilla, bourbon, lactose sugar, maybe some wood chips, and voilà. Velvet.

Not a big brown ale guy but this is pretty taste. Brown ale with some sweetness. Would drink again

임페리얼 브라운 에일이라니. 배럴이 아주 짱짱하게 살아있던게 인상적이었다.

BIG coffee nose (don’t like coffee), knew it would still be a great brew, Founders never disappoints. Hoping a couple years of cellaring will mellow the coffee & bring out the other flavors.

I enjoy this way more than I thought I would! This beer has a lot going on, which can be a bad thing sometimes, but this one actually nails it. Some sweetness, not too much coffee (which I appreciate.) Very solid beer

Coffee notes really pull this together and prevent it being too sweet. Among Founder's imperial brown ales I personally prefer Underground Mountain Brown, but this is a great alternative that runs sweeter and more velvety.
