Sweet, tart, and then some heat from spices and booziness. This is a sipper. Another stellar brew from Founders. I simply don’t think Founders can make a bad beer.

You get the orange and cranberry. Cherry is a lil lost in it all. Very tasty!

Definitely does NOT come across as 11%! So smooth and tasty. No booziness. Get the orange nose and the cran-cherry body.

Almost more like a cocktail than a beer. Ample cranberry and orange. Signature Founders bourbon barrel, both good and bad. Perfect balance of sweet/boozy and tart. 4.2+ Definitely a fun beer. Glad I have 3 more.

Tart cherry and boozy with a lot more orange presence than cranberry. Like an alcohol Cheerwine pop. Supposed to emulate a cranberry old fashioned cocktail.

Very nice, wine profile. The booziness definitely comes through, followed by a deliciously tart cocktail flavor. Make an old fashioned using cranberry, orange, honey, and stir it with a stick of cinnamon and you'll have this ale. So satisfying.

Good fruitiness from the cherry and cranberry. Nice balance of mild tartness with mild sweetness. Orange peel might be there in the aftertaste.

The orange flavors are strong with cranberrry mixed it. There are cherry and caramel elements in support. There is a bit of a sherry like note with bourbon and bread.

Lovely. Getting all the flavors. Not too heavy on the bourbon. Medium body. Very festive. Sweet with a tiny bit of tartness. Nice change of pace.

As this is barrel aged, The Cranfather made me an offer I can't refuse.
