Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2016) 12.4%

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.

KBS with the black cap. Still holds up well, thick, still slight hints of the barrel. Aged well!

This was fantastic…the booze mellowed out and left flavors similar to S’mores. So freaking good. Only regret? Not having another!

Strong coffee and chocolate flavors with a good molasses and dark fruit backbone and some bourbon in there. 6+ year old beer. It’s still incredible.

Delayed post from 3/17. A 2016-2020 KBS vertical. 2016 was the winner, with 2020 coming in a close 2nd.

Unlike some other Founders beers, this aged just fine, even after 7 years. Fairly smooth but alcohol is still present. Lots of coffee. Hints of bourbon, though that is somewhat diminished.

Just seemed like the right day for this one. This bottle has outlived 2 beer fridges. 7 years old.

Hard to imagine that I have any left from ‘16 but I scored over a case from a small town VT store that didn’t know what they had back in a time when you could barely buy one bottle most places. Has gotten more winey than bourbon. Time to drink up 😕

I’m certain that they changed the barrel process after 2016. Note the black cap in the picture. I think I only have a couple left.

Not sure if it’s because it has aged for so long, but I forgot how god damn good KBS used to be. The new batches have nothing on this.

Christ-Al-Mighty! Cocia, cocoa, wood, and some more cocoa in the smell. Smooth, glorious woody body with a solid barrel flavours of coconut and vanilla. Awesome aftertaste, dark chocolate, some more vanilla... my God, what an experience.

Just saw KBS is celebrating 20 years. It’s the big stout that started my admiration of the style. Cheers to 20 years of hunting all around town for a bottle or two or sending my Dad if release day fell on a workday. Glad they’re easier to get now!
