KBS Maple Mackinac Fudge (2020)

Stout - Imperial / Double

Michigan didn't invent old-fashioned fudge, but it was perfected here. We pay tribute to this time-honored tradition with KBS Maple Mackinac Fudge. By amplifying the rich chocolate notes of KBS using Mackinac Fudge coffee, then adding maple syrup and aging it in oak bourbon barrels, we've created a bold new take on our barrel-aged classic - one that could only have originated in Michigan.

Dark rich pour. Smells fudgy! Am I surprised that it tastes like liquid fudge? Came here close to closing time, otherwise I'd let this baby sit. As it warms more of the maple and coffee comes through. Glad I finally got to try it. Thanks James H.

Way to much chocolate fudge and not enough bourbon or maple. I’ll still with the original!

Good solid stout with maple flavor, much lighter than expected, almost a coffee finish to thin it out a bit.

BAC#7 - Flavor as big as Big Mac itself 🌉 Fudge and that Ferris coffee are most prominent. I can smell that coffee when grabbing the glass, wow. Bourbon chimes in at the finish. I think this has to be my fave KBS of all-time. 🎊

Oh ho ho! This is really good! First time I’m trying this variant. Drinks like a glorious chocolate fudge cake! Now that I know the CBS is gone, this will be the beer to look out for me from Founders!

Pretty well the "best" beer I've had since my initial experience with the similarly-intense Founders CBS. Deep melding of chocolate with maple, coffee, and bourbon. Wow.

Like how roasty it is just wish it had more barrel heat and maple. Letting it warm up

Great nose, nice chocolate. Very subtle maple, nothing near as sweet or full as CBS, but a touch sweeter than the base.

I think Kristin B. felt bad watching me choke down that nasty-ass GC seltzer so we decided to get into something better.
