we are pleased to announce that our 2nd out-of-town guest for The Takeover on 5/18 is Founders Doom
Whales, Bro….Whales.
Our CCBW Event is an ode to awesome Chicago beers with 2 special out-of-town guests.. Bitches Brew and Founders Doom!
We are huge fans of the Michigan craft beer scene and the Founders Backstage Series in particular. When the idea of having non Chicago beers on our taplist was discussed, this monster barrel aged IPA immediately came up as a desired choice.
Doom is unleashed when Founders’ award-winning specialty Imperial IPA, Double Trouble, is aged in bourbon barrels for four months to create a distinct flavor experience. So, while Double Trouble is brewed to turn your world upside down, Doom is brewed to tear it apart: pungent hops conspire with boozy bourbon notes to send your senses spinning.
Known as “Hand of Doom” when originally brewed for their taproom, this 10% ABV beer is a unique addition to the Founders barrel-aged repertoire, which has mostly consisted of malt-forward beers such as Backwoods Bastard and Kentucky Breakfast Stout.
Tickets are going fast for The Chicago Beer Geeks Tap Takeover Experience.
