Beer Brief #50 - Foundation Stout

Brewery - Badger Hill Brewing Company, Minnetonka, Minnesota

Beer - Foundation Stout

Style - American Stout

ABV - 6.3%

IBU - 45

Color - Black with a dark brown edge showing when held up to light, light tan head

Aroma - Light roast coffee, chocolate muffin, slight black licorice, bit of berry fruit

Flavor - Molasses, coffee, dark chocolate, very subtle blackberry, big bitterness

Verdict - This is a highly enjoyable brew that surprises with it's drinkability. Not as rich or full bodied as one might expect from a 6.3% stout, the slight dryness and lighter mouthfeel make this beer one you could revisit a few times in a single evening. I know on one particular occasion, I did just that while enjoying a burger at Red Robin...
