Perfect after a day of electrical work. Dark fruit (fig, cherry), molasses, and bourbon. Excellent!

Ok ale, men alt den lækre Maple er desværre mere eller mindre fordampet efter 5 år 🥲

Butterscotch, syrup, caramel, white chocolate and red berries. Smooth, sweet taste with a lot of “cellar” notes, well aged but still fresh and vibrant. Great!

Vanilla, white chocolate, raisins, completely integrated barrel, red currants, resin. Has aged beautifully. It’s like a barleywine

Cellar pull from '19 -- a dustyboi! Boozy and wonderful! Sweet bourbon notes, but a semi-dry finish.

#️⃣4️⃣0️⃣0️⃣0️⃣🎊 Smørkaramell i A. Mer samt svisker, vanilje og bourbon. Flott balanse. Lang søt eik og velplassert alkovarme. Finfin. Men husker den som bedre fersk.

Founders Advent Calendar Day 22. This is sweet. Little Canadian export bottle. Lots of hop still left in this one. Good molasses and maple with a sharper bourbon finish. Solid all around.

En av mina favoriter från Founders. Söt och ordentligt Knäckig. Sedan finns bourbon tonerna från lagringen. Härlig munkänsla. Den höga ABVn är ordentligt döljd. Gott!

Alltid lika bra! Karamellig, söt och stark. Mjuk och rund. Går väldigt mycket åt Barleywinehållet. Görgott!

The Curmudgeon still lives! Some subtle earthy and herbal-spicy hop bitterness peeking through. Big molasses flavour, along with light caramel and honey. Maple bourbon still persisting, in flavour and mild heat. Barrel oak hints lead into a dry finish.
