120 Minute IPA (2024) Weston

Definitely a very big beer, and probably worth the impact of the high ABV — long lasting aftertaste Not sure how to decipher the code printed on the neck, and web searching isn't helping — it's something like D 075 4 1233 11

French Toast Bastard Weston

Really good! The taste definitely reminds me of French toast, though just slightly off. Bottled 08.14.23 I forget, did Founders clean up their act, or should I feel guilty for buying this?

Where the Wild Hops Are Weston

Interesting beer, with hops and some bitterness, a slightly full mouthfeel, some brett or other wildness, and a good aroma when first poured or later agitated -- grew on me (initially rated 3.75)

Nemesis (2021) Weston

I bought this a while back, but am just trying it now -- I agreed with *all* of the suggested flavor profile options, which is rare -- young enough that the hops are still strong -- pretty sure I bought more bottles, which I should compare to Bigfoot

Hazy-O! Weston

They went all in on the oats in this hazy, and it works pretty well

4 Giants IPA (2021) Weston

I hesitated buying a Founder's beer, after their racial issues -- it seems they have improved at least somewhat, so I hope I didn't make a mistake -- quite good, and strong
