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.

A 2015 in 2022! Over 7 yrs! I like this better the 2nd time. Tastes like toasted multi grain bread with a few drops of molasses. I'm noticing some oakiness/woody notes along with vanilla. I have some sediment in the bottle that will not come out. Bummer.

Super smooth and sweet, tons of vanilla. A great supper would be tough to crush. Probably great with a savory meal with a lot of flavors

Had the vintage 2015 one. The malty after taste is awesome. Some sweet hint of maple syrup / burbon at first, would pair well with some salty fries.

Had to travel to Vegas to try this hometown beer for the first time 👀. Barrel aged, hoppy taste. Excellent 💥

Very malty, sweet with a late bitterness. A very good ale.

Disappointing. Not as thick as I’d have expected it to be.

This bottles gotta be ~10 years old. Not doing too hot. Kinda funky, oxidized/metallic flavors going on. F

Wish Founders still made this or better yet, Curmudgeon’s Better Half! Last one from the cellar has some floaties but not impacting the flavor.
