    So, it looks like Founder's may redeem themselves after that dud of an announcement about the re-release of Mango Magnifico. These two I'm WAY more excited for, especially Sumatra Mountain Brown. BA Sumatra Mountain Brown (from the taps during the KBS release in 2012) is one of my all-time favorite beers, so I'm excited to finally get to try the base beer.

    Today you get your very first look at two new beers coming to bottles from Founders Brewing. Palm Reader is a pale ale that uses all Michigan-grown Crystal & Zuper-Saazer hops and it will hit 5.4%-AbV and 45 IBU. Sumatra Mountain Brown is an imperial brown ale brewed with Sumatra coffe as well as German and Perle hops. These are both 12oz bottles and stay tuned for release details.

    Do my eyes deceive me? A new pale ale? Not a barrel. Not a 10%+ i can really can down with that.

    Perrin Hotbox Brown has had my palate in a stranglehold lately, this Sumatra might be enough to break that addiction. Did these labels just get submitted...I'm guessing they are still a bit out from being released?

    I support all of their announcements today. They each represent a nice state of yum to me.

    Yup, both sound excellent... Here's to hoping that imperial brown packs a punch!

    Oh, that Mountain Brown sounds delicious. I'm guessing based on @BaseballNBeer info, I expect the pale ale for the summer, and the coffee brown ale for the fall/winter.

    Never cared too much for brown ales, good beer, but not something I would seek out. Ever since I have had one with coffee in it, man oh man, marriage made in heaven. Like that dude that is a dick that you hate to be around then he marries some cool chick who constantly makes fun of him and balances the whole thing out. Look forward to this

    Sumatra Mountain Brown is scheduled for release in a few months. Before Summer actually.

    Anyone looking for info on Sumatra can look at Founders list of beers on here. It has ratings and was on tap for a while.
