Imperial Golden Ale with Coffee, Cocoa Nibs, Vanilla and Milk Sugar

Take in the wonder that is the marvelous – ahem – “marvelroast” new addition to our coffee beer lineup. We started with an imperial golden ale and brewed it with coffee, vanilla and cocoa nibs. But it doesn’t end there, folks. Milk sugar added during the brewing process lends a smooth and sweet finish, making this a delicious treat reminiscent of your favorite iced coffee drink.

Sample during the It Would Brighton MI Birthday If Yoopers Could Lake It To This Tasting! event on 09/18/2020. Clear bronze-gold color with a medium white head that recedes steadily to a film. Strings of lace. Aroma of coffee, malt, vanilla and hops. Medium body with flavors of roast coffee, malt, vanilla and subtle earthy hop. The finish is sweet and roasty with a vanilla mocha aftertaste. Pretty good overall.

Flaska från SB. Klar bärnstensfärgad vätska med medelhögt fluffigt vitt skum. Stor kaffedoft med vanilj och grädde. Riktigt söt, fin kaffesmak, vanilj, kaffesirap. Hyfsat drickbar trots rejäl sötma. Ganska knäpp men också lite kul. Gott.

Really cool unique beer. Like a stout without the roast, but with the sweetness of a pastry, but not overdone. Perfectly brewed to what it can be. Hit its potential. Beery xmas adventkalendar 2020 (3.7 dec 2020) Savuer-bier Apr 2020. Nice cold brewed coffee taste. Not so much stout-like or roasty. Keep it 3.7

Bottle (6/21/20) pour from The Lazy Dog Beer Shoppe. Appearance is clear golden orange with fine, pulpy mist and larger nasty dark floaties, light, lazy sparkle, 2-finger white foamy head with excellent retention and nice soapy lacing. Aroma is strong cocoa, vanilla, and cream (kind of like a 3 Muskateers bar). Taste follows aroma with mild coffee contribution. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with smooth texture, soft-to-average carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, not getting a ton of coffee, which shouldn't have deteriorated by now. But, other flavors make for a pleasant dessert beer--somewhat similar to a blond stout.

Aus der Flasche (bottled 21.06.2020) im 2020-11 getrunken. Dieses orange-goldene Ale hat eine wirklich spannende Aromen angefangen von der deutlichen Hopfenbitterkeit eines American Strong Ale, die dann auf ein leicht süßliches Waffel- und Haselnussaroma trifft. Die verwendeten Zutaten von Kaffee, Vanillie und Kakao fallen einzeln nicht direkt auf, aber diese Kombination die sich im Glas entfaltet ist schon klasse. Wiedermal ein tolles Ale von Founders. Prost!
