FOUNDERS SUMATRA MOUNTAIN BROWN

On tap at Amazing Grapes, fascinatingly decadent cola-hued Imperial Brown Ale benefits greatly from expressive Sumatra coffee influx. Bold coffee berry penetration receives bitter dark-roasted hop intensity to enhance mesmerizing coffee bean theme. Creamy milk-sugared caramel latte sweetness contrasts nutty black coffee pungency as light black pepper influence lingers. Fudgy black chocolate, vanilla, espresso and cocoa tones provide solid support alongside subtler hazelnut, pecan and walnut illusions.

FOUNDERS NITRO RUBAEUS

On tap at End Of Elm, superb nitro-injected framboise draught perfectly complements original Rubaeus, retaining its pinkish ruby hue while gaining a sourer raspberry-rotted rasp to go against the syrupy raspberry soda sweetness above pale white wheat malting (picking up reluctant sour-candied raspberry, cranberry and crabapple tartness at the delicate Seltzer-watered raspberry finish).

FOUNDERS KBS

“Highly acclaimed” updated 2013 version (abbreviating Kentucky Bourbon Stout) pours like viscous motor oil and goes down velvety smooth. Creamy oak barrel-aged full body (with buffed tan head and dark brown body) brings dark-roasted mocha malting and hop-charred bittering to mellow bourbon setting. Terrific ground coffee overlay picks up bittersweet burnt caramel, dark chocolate, maple molasses, Nestles cocoa, vanilla bean and mochaccino illusions. World class dark ale disguises lofty 11.2% alcohol well.
