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.

I’m pleasing surprised... plenty of maple 🍁 and easy on the fudge so far. Maybe it’s the “Better Half” glassware. I think 🤔 they should lower the prices to about 17-18$. Then I might be more excited about buying this crafting nectar.

Intense and delicious. Bitter espresso and dark chocolate. Thick, fudgey body. Maple as it warms. Delightful to drink.

Heavy coffee on the nose and taste. Almost like a cafe mocha. Chocolate finish. Very good but minimal bourbon, will be nice to see how it ages.

Hot damn, that's an amazing beer. Chocolatey, thicc, and rich. Very little to fault in this one, but I would like just a touch barrel. So good, I'm buying more.

First Founders I've been interested in for quite awhile now, but wow. Maple is great, fudge is great. Overall just a great brew. Would have been an awesome breakfast brew.

Roasty smell, tastes of chocolate fudge, coffee and slight maple. They seemed to make all these flavors come through without being overly sweet. And smooth as hell.

Nose of straight up chocolate fudge. Heavy on the roasty coffee up front, but everything is smooth chocolate fudge after that.

Smell chocolate fudge coffee. Taste dark roast bitter coffee cream then chocolate fudge boozy. Maple??? Not as smooth as other Founders dark beers I’ve had but that seems to be the norm lately. Age will likely smooth this out. Gonna sit on a few.

Just a bit better than the espresso variant. Not a fudge fan in general but this was still pretty decent. Very roasty.
