Chocolate Cherry KBS Dica

Uh-huh. A fine KBS variant, slightly hot note that would probably temper with age (bottled 12/2022), cherry is muted under the chocolate and coffee but it's there, giving a nice acidity to it as well (or is that the bourbon barrel, perhaps...)

Sweet Repute Dica

Bourbon barrel-aged wheat wine with maple syrup. Very sweet, bordering on cloying, but tasty and nuanced, hides its 12.8% well.

All Day Chill Day Dica

Not sure I understand all the fuss about Cold IPA, which is sure to be a short-lived style. This is a mellow, dryer version of All Day and it's very nice on what feels like a summer afternoon.

KBS Maple Mackinac Fudge Dica

Hoo wee! Not quite as much maple as I'd like, but loads of fudgy goodness in this bold variant.

Punkin Ale Dica

Not bad, mildly spiced and tastes of proper pumpkin. Can't compare it to pre-Sam Adams merger, but it's pretty good.

4 Giants IPA Dica

Keeping it rolling on the Michigan tip. A nice imperial IPA with a great sweet/bitter balance, but has a bit too much going on for its own good...

Barrel Aged High Ball Drifter Dica

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.

All Day Haze Dica

Forgot to check in for this one last night. A hazy version of All-Day IPA, great aroma, simply excellent.

Velvet Rush Dica

Bourbon barrel-aged imperial brown ale with coffee, chocolate, vanilla extract. Absolutely smooth and divine, though aroma leaves something to be desired. Also, new Cowboy Bebop live-action series is legit.

Limbo Raspberry Dica

Another NA banger, this one a raspberry ale with light tartness, oh so drinkable. Really impressive.

Henry & His Science Dica

Incredible pair of NA beers from Mikkeller, brewed at De Proef. This one simulates a tropical pale ale with ease. Really good, albeit pricey.
