2018 from the cellar - tons of flavor that hangs on the palate with each sip. Getting em all - maple/coffee/cinnamon and a little BB. Another one that held up well.

I wish I didn’t open this. I had no idea it had aged this well. Chocolate hung on as well as the cinnamon.

La tenía reservada para una ocasión especial. Buen homenaje, con la que considero una de las mejores cervezas que he probado nunca. La cremosidad, aroma, la explosión de sabores,y las ganas de que no se acabe, no solo siguen sino que se han multiplicado

Been sitting on this long enough. Nobody to share with so here goes. Mellow booziness on nose & throughout. Coffee flavor muted-almost nonexistent. Some sweetness from the maple. Rich chocolate flavor. Too bad Founders discontinued this series. Divine!!!

Getting rid of old bottles. The slightest hint of maple, but good stout and a little barrel. Honestly not bad at all.

Chocolate coffee and a little maple on the nose as well as taste. It's mellowed out while still being quite flavorful.

The maple sweetness comes and goes in the very beginning, and the chocolate is a non factor. I love the coffee in this, however. This aged way more gracefully than the 2017 version. Really well done

More chocolate on the 2018, whereas the 2017 was heavier maple flavor. Both delicious.

Retained a good level of silkiness and the flavors blend together a little more harmoniously than the 2017 I tried. The coffee is still prominent but is tempered by a stronger booziness in this one. I get a bit more of a darker malt on this one as well.

Endnu en god udgave af Founders Breakfast Stout. Denne gang med Ahorn sirup og den sødme træder (lidt for) kraftigt igennem. Det betyder også at fornemmelsen af alkohol er tydeligere. Lækre noter af kaffe, chokolade og ristet malt. #ØlsmagningHosAnker

A little lacking on depth of flavor due to aging. Very nice blending of bourbon barrel aging and chocolate, coffee and maple.

No heat at all. Just chocolate and roasty coffee. A delicious mocha mix and too crushable.
