Dankwood

Red Ale - Imperial / Double

What do you get when a big, bold imperial red IPA meets an oak bourbon barrel? A palate stunner that’ll send your senses spinning or, as we like to call it, Dankwood. Rich caramel notes emerge from the depths of the IPA, highlighting strong malt character while the bourbon barrel-aging develops the complexity. A dank, sticky and slightly sweet sipper, Dankwood is the perfect alchemy of wood and hops.

4/18/18… no shock this is no longer good. I’m the dumbass who sits on an imperial red IPA. Too bad, this was delicious when fresh. The picture matches the situation

Holy shyte. Här behövdes tre stolar. Lyktstolpe-ABV och fat-lagring (inte bara hos drickaren). Alla smaker framstår som käftsmällar. Balansen är urkul! Varje klunk är som en halvnelson man gärna gör om och om igen. Helt insane bourbon-smord fem-etta!

Lots of caramel, some vanilla, deep maltiness, good amount of deep dry maltiness among the sweet taste notes. Medium bitterness, some dry tannins from barrel, this beer is more like wee heavy or aged barley wine.

Sweet caramel and some raisins. Initial stickiness to needly pine finish with warming strength but smooth. Really like this style, brown ales are where it's at

Hankala sanoa, kuinka tuoretta tämä on (tuskin kovin), mutta on aika erilainen kuin muutaman vuoden takaisissa muistikuvissa. On taipunut barley wineksi, mikä ei sinänsä ole pahasta.

Weer zo’n klapper van Founders, eigenlijk ook niet anders gewend. Ditmaal een red IPA die een poos heeft liggen klotsen in een bourbon vat. Mooie gelaagdheid, caramel, mout, bourbon, hout en een tikkie choco knallen van links naar rechts!

Taste not that unique for bourbon barrel aged, but very good. Pretty light for a 12.2%ABV beer. Hops battle the bourbon flavor a bit. Nice finish.
