Curmudgeon Old Ale

Old / Stock Ale

Brewed with molasses and a focus on malts, then oak-aged. The result is a strong, rich delight that’s deceptively smooth and drinkable.

Sweet, malty, probably shouldn’t have been preceded by an IPA as it dampened the flavour.

Cooler temperatures are here, so it’s time to raid the cellar. Don’t have a date on this bottle, but it must be 6+ years old.

Probably would rate it even higher if I had a full bottle. Got better as I went along.

Would have been best to share this boozy one, the sweetness is distractingly cloying the deeper you go.

Long distance zoom happy hour beer two. Toffee smooth sweet deliciousness. 2011 or 2010, maybe older, pre stamped bottle date

Curmudgeon from @foundersbrewing is molasses based Old Ale aged in Oak Ales is shockingly an easy drinker even at 9.8% Great Holiday flavor profile for those looking for a beer with layers of flavor but not overly heavy.

Pretty solid. Very sweet smelling and tasting. Getting lots of malts, not alot of molasses but this has some age.

Cant believe that I ever forgot to check this one in. This bottle is at least a few years old and once the contents are poured, a residue is left stuck to the bottom of the bottle. very well aged

How could they retire this recipe? I should’ve stocked up, but have a couple left. Goes well with ‘Tom Crean: Unsung Hero’ and polar temps.
