Back in business. This is what Founders does best - high ABV barrel-aged concoctions/experiments that work. Sweet, with bitter orange and cherry to balance. Truly bridges the divide between a beer and a cocktail. Outstanding.

Unfortunately the overpowering Triple Sec flavor takes away from a really good Imperial Brown Ale.

This was good from cold to warm. I am not big on sweet beers, but this was not too sweet for me at all.

Red-amber and clear. Definite liquor, with underlying citrus notes. Dry finish.

Bottleshop series version was better. They didn’t need the orange extract. Still good though.

Tasty BBA brown ale! Nice warming cherries, orange peel and bourbon! It’s sweet but it finishes dry!

Lots of orange yet smooth... maybe by the cherry or bourbon barrel aging. Founders just doesn't miss.

The orange and cherry really come through, with some real nice barrel to round it off.

That's is quite tasty. Nicely balanced orange and cherry. Stinger bourbon notes would be nice.

Can smell the orange before the first taste. Cherry slides across the tongue. Slight bourbon finish. What a treat. Gonna buy one more and cellar it a few years.
