Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2020)

Stout - Imperial / Double Coffee

This beer taught us that patience truly is a virtue. KBS is a big imperial stout brewed with a massive amount of coffee and chocolate and then bourbon barrel-aged to perfection. Incredibly silky and full-bodied with notes of vanilla, cocoa, roasted coffee and charred oak.

Never had it so fresh, 4 months old. So fresh the coffee really comes through. Would love to try the espresso version.

Great beer, complex flavors , this is the kind of beer I love. The brewer had an idea of what a beer should be and nailed it. I have never rated a beer 5.0, this one earned this rating. Excellent beer Founders Brewing!!

Slightly sweet and bold coffee and bold bourbon upfront; mild molasses, roasty and chocolatey. Smooth full bodied and easy drinking. A......

Malt Does More

Huge coffee nose, palate is also heavily coffee with hints of dark chocolate and barrel wood. Nice. Booziness is a little too on the nose this fresh.

I remember when KBS was hard to find or you had to wait in line for the release....the chocolate and coffee is distinct as is the bourbon taste.

KBS always delivers. Chocolate, roasty coffee and just perfect bourbon BA. Awesome complexity and taste that seems to go on forever. 44/50

Worth the wait, saved this for dessert and the rich coffee and chocolate was a delight. KBS is a winner!

Earlier. This is really solid for being so young. Big dark chocolate, thick mouthfeel, subtle barrel heat.
