2011 vintage bottle. This was part of a Founders 4-pack I traded with PaulMcConnell (outstanding BA!). He claimed this was his favorite of the lot, no mean feat knowing the other beers were KBS, FBS and Devil Dancer!
A: Pours a lush, dark brown with a thin tan head. It looks like it's gonna be a big beer. And oh boy, it is. It ever so is.
S: Oak, bourbon, butterscotch candies.
T: Dark sugar, oak, butterscotch, caramel, subtle bitterness, bourbon boozy warmth. Delicious.
M: Coating, sticky, warm as it slides down. Boozy, but not hot.
O: A beautiful strong scotch ale, warm and comforting. Sweet, but nowhere near clawing. Very balanced and a perfect introduction to the style. Packed full of flavour, but not extreme. That seems to be Founders in a nutshell. Great stuff!
