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.

Too complex for hot afternoon drinking, but I would adore this at a bonfire in the autumn.

Coffee nose. Rich roasted coffee forward. Smioth, creamy mouthfeel. Coffee, vanilla, chocolate flavors. Slight boozy notes. Sweet. Great BA coffee brown

Not loving this. Great start and coffee chocolate finish.. but aftertaste kills it. Bummer.

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.

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

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.

Very good. Smoothness of a brown ale, bba is very subtle, and a tad coffee added bitterness. Certainly worth trying.
