Masterfully Crafted. Patiently Perfected. Founders Barrel-Aged Beer Tasting Class
Guest speaker Liam Houck from Founders, who has an unparalleled passion for craft beers, will discuss the history of Founders, the process of barrel-aged brews and the nuances of brewing.
Beer, similar to all wines, is an experience for all of the senses; color, aroma, texture, and last but not least flavor.
Ticket includes a small plate food pairing with each of the five barrel-aged brews.
$55 per person
The Lineup:
-Backwoods Bastard paired with Korean Wings
11% abv; RateBeer: 100
Expect lovely, warm smells of single malt scotch, oaky bourbon barrels, smoke, sweet caramel and roasted malts, a bit of earthy spice and a scintilla of dark fruit. Its a kick-back sipper made to excite the palate.
-Barrel Runner paired with crab empanada
11.1% abv
Inspiration for our barrel-aged beers can come from the most unexpected places and our latest release is proof of that. Sweet and hoppy, rich and bright this rum barrel-aged imperial IPA brewed with Mosaic hops will make you believe youre in the tropics
-Dankwood paired with truffle burger slider
12.2% abv; RateBeer: 96
What do you get when a big, bold imperial red IPA meets an oak bourbon barrel? A palate stunner thatll send your senses spinning or, as we like to call it, Dankwood. Rich caramel notes emerge from the depths of the IPA, highlighting strong malt character while the bourbon barrel-aging develops the complexity. A dank, sticky and slightly sweet sipper, Dankwood is the perfect alchemy of wood and hops.
-Curmudgeons Better Half paired with maple bacon and apple grilled cheese
12-13%; RateBeer: 99
Last bottled back in 2012, Curmudgeons Better Half is finally making its way back to allow Founders Brewing Co.s long-standing but now infrequently released Curmudgeon Old Ale to once again feel the tender embrace of oak and sweet maple. Meant to be the sweeter side of the relationship, Curmudgeons Better Half is a harmonious matrimony of deceptively smooth old ale brewed with molasses and time spent aging in bourbon barrels that have previously held maple syrup. This all results in a beautiful counterpart that is sweet, rich and utterly delicious.
-KBS paired with chocolate truffles
12.3% abv; Ratebeer: 100
What weve got here is an imperial stout brewed with a massive amount of coffee and chocolates, then cave-aged in oak bourbon barrels for an entire year to make sure wonderful bourbon undertones come through in the finish. Makes your taste buds squeal with delight.
