Nemesis 2010
Founders Brewing
Beer Geek Nation: A

Rate Beer: 99/100

The 2010 release of Nemesis is best described by our brewing team as "a dark barley wine that pours black with a subtle mahogany hue. Brewed with 5 malts and no shortage of hops for a pleasantly bitter booming flavor. Roasty and toasty with a multitude of tastes that melts on your tongue".

you should try a vintage J.W. Lee's Harvest Ale. It's a whole new world of barley wines

[BeerGeekNation]

@ChadzBeerReviews I think that beer is actually considered an Old Ale which was actually the precursor to the barley wine. In this day and age it doesnt matter much but Im pretty sure the JW is brewed based on a 300 year old Old Ale recipe. For what its worth

Had this on tap at Barcade recently. I loved it and think it will get much better over time.

[BeerGeekNation]

@benjaminfalls I totally agree! Cant wait to try my other bottle a few months from now

2010 Nemesis is drinking REALLY good right now. 2009 Nemesis was/is one of my all-time favorite beers. Fresh, the 2009 is better, but having tried each one at about 6 months age, I think I like the 2010 better (fresh 2009 is still the best overall, for me, but NO knocking in either of them).

I really enjoy your reviews, keep them up!

is there anything deep dark in there?

[BeerGeekNation]

@suboctaves I agree 100% this beer shouldnt be as drinkable as it is. And I think production is either down or the demand is way up. Probably a bit of both.

@25openmind It was actually really really close to Adam, I didnt realize it at the time but your 100% correct! And the older viscosity is coming in probably 2 weeks. But def before episode 100
