New Beer Release: Curmudgeon’s Better Half

Cadre,

We are happy to announce the next release for our 2018 Barrel-Aged Series:

Bottles of Founders Curmudgeon Better Half

Curmudgeon’s Better Half

What tames an old ale like Curmudgeon? The tender embrace of oak and sweet maple, that’s what. The result is Curmudgeon’s Better Half, a harmonious matrimony of our deceptively smooth old ale brewed with molasses and time spent aging in bourbon barrels that have previously held maple syrup. Because all counterparts should be sweet, rich and utterly delicious.

That’s right, we’re bringing this old favorite back from retirement – last bottled in 2012, Curmudgeon’s Better Half has become one of the most highly requested beers and for good reason. It’s damn good. You all have been very vocal in petitioning for its return and it would’ve been cruel for us to hold out any longer in delivering on that.

As part of this release, we will be asking for your help to announce publicly. You may remember what we did with CBS last year – this time you will all be receiving something special. What that is will remain a mystery for now.

Curmudgeon’s Better Half will be available in 4-packs of 12oz bottles, 750mL bottles and on draft in both of our taprooms beginning mid-August (exact date to come) and everywhere else later that month. It will have an SRP of $16.99/4-pack and $12.99/750mL bottle.

It is the fifth release in the 2018 Barrel-Aged Series, preceded by KBSBackwoods BastardDankwood and our not-yet-publicly announced Barrel Runner. If you’ve been counting, that means we have one left to go before we close out the year… what could it be?

This information was shared with you, our Cadre members, first. Look for more details about the beer on TwitterFacebook and Instagram closer to the release.
