Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2017)

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.

Why not a coffee stout vertical at 9pm? 😑 This one is super tasty though. The coffee is pretty subdued but the bourbon really jumps out at you with a chocolatey roastiness. Served too cold but it blooms nicely after warming up a bit.

I found this in the back of my beer cellar. From back before it became a year round beer. Almost 8 years old now. Strong espresso with a hint of bourbon. It's still a good stout, but nothing special anymore.

A couple months shy of 7 years old. Was far better 6 years ago. Unfair to score at this point.

This aged nicely. Bourbon. Coffee. Chocolate. Boozy. Smooth. Roasty. Rich.

6 years old and wow - smooth and delicious. Can detect coffee or chocolate, but bourbon barrel aging hit me first, which I love! Wonderful.

Founders is weird about storing stuff - they are opposed to it. But this 2017 has held up just fine.

6 years on this is just perfect on draft. Comparing to BCBS and others the sweetness is muted and you still get that burn.

after a quick cellar check, I found this … feels thinner and more figgy/plum like, but after all, it is six years old

Safe to say this may have sat a bit too long. Original rating sits because I know what this was. My fault for what it now is.
