Backwoods Bastard (2018) Obert

Tonight's closer. Stellar scotch ale, thinned out some, but a classic and still packs great flavor.

KBS Spicy Chocolate (2023) Obert

Going back north of the border for a mole inspired stout for the holiday. Tasty, flavorful, but doesn't really jump out as the best mole stout I've had. Heady coffee and chocolate overwhelm the spiciness. Good for me, but spice fans would want more.

World Wide Stout - Bourbon Barrel Aged Obert

Have the OG, have the BA variety, the spirits of party demand it. A chill St. Pat's for me, but with work on the morrow, restraint is called for. Headier barrel notes than the OG, and a tad more abrasive, but delivers on point.

World Wide Stout (2023) Obert

Stay In Stout Obert

Think of this as KBS meets a weaker stout. Thinner than I'd like from the dark beer masters at Founders, but the flavor is complex and wonderful. Coffee and fudge leap to the forefront and hazelnuts back the whole deal up, along with a boozy countenance.

Ginger, Spice, Barreled And Nice Obert

Founders continues its crusade to make every style a 12% or higher. A barleywine is the perfect style into which adding spices and ginger works. Smooth and spicy, with a balanced blend of flavors. The perfect lead-in to the holiday season.
