Well, I figure it has been a year and I should probably review something.
Founders Nemesis 2009 is maple bourbon barrel aged wheat wine. I wasn’t terribly interested in trying it until I got to taste a sip when a friend ordered one.
I bought a 4-pack when I left the restaurant.
I’m drinking it from a wide-mouth snifter-style glass. It pours a rich reddish-caramel color with little to no head. The alcohol apparent in the nose and in the warmth of the finish. The thing that really sticks with me is the almost buttery sweetness. Reminds me of a butterscotch or butter rum candy. I’m definitely putting a couple of these back for a year or two to let them mellow.
