Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2019)

Stout - Imperial / Double Coffee

What we’ve got here is an imperial stout brewed with a massive amount of coffee and chocolates, then cave-aged in oak bourbon barrels for an entire year to make sure wonderful bourbon undertones come through in the finish. Makes your taste buds squeal with delight.

This stout is amazingly tasty without trying too hard. This beer manages to be perfectly balanced with notes of bourbon, coffee, vanilla and chocolate. This beer should be a reference for all breweries attempting to brew a no-BS barrel aged imp. stout.

Not as good as I remembered, possibly due to the age?

Still smooth but the flavor seemed to have dropped off in this one. The 17 and 18 seem to have held on better. But still a smooth stout with good chocolate notes.

Still a phenomenal brew. My last one. Coffee flavor is predominant. Watching @DaytonMBB take care of VCU. Getting #Lowd

3 years in the bottle and it gets smoother! Thought its supposed to get boozier! Chocolate still there and coffee. Bourbon note at the finish…. So good.

Always good. As expected, the boozieness mellowed out over the last (almost) 3 years.

2019 vintage. Found on the back shelf. A big ol’ bourbon barrel stout with some nice smokiness on the back end. Can definitely tell how aging effected the brew. Excellent, and I expect nothing else from Founders.
