Lizard of Koz

Stout - Imperial / Double Pastry

This one is near and dear to our hearts. Brewmaster Jeremy Kosmicki wanted to make the birthday of his little sister, Liz, a special one. So he did what he does best and brewed a stout using a few of her favorite ingredients: fresh Michigan blueberries, rich chocolate and vanilla aged in bourbon barrels to round out those beautiful flavors. Liz was floored and we think you will be too.

5 anos de guarda. Dulçor pronunciado, corpo denso, muita baunilha e chocolate, leve acidez, final levemente doce, mas sem ser enjoativo. Melhorou bastante com o tempo.

Wat een fantastisch bier. Complex met vanille, chocolade en een goeie zwik blauwe bessen die een licht zuurtje geven. Nogmaals, Founders is altijd goed!

loaded with blueberries, it softens the stout and gives almost a sour taste to it. super smooth all around

Freshly crushed, perfumed, minty blueberries and chocolates on the nose. This has to be more fruit than stout, after several years of aging I think the blueberry has mellowed to a point where it goes nicely with the sweet vanilla, spice and milky choc.

Better than when it was fresh. The saccharine note has fallen off while leaving deep sweet blueberry with chocolate. It’s way good. Floral-blueberry finish.

Very smooth and sweet, I can pick up chocolate and berries. Tartness of the berries lingers in the finish.
