Cherry, slight chocolate and bourbon notes, very smooth, 1.5 year age

Bottled on 12/6/22. Bourbon is still pretty Hot. The Chocolate and Cherry were overpowered by the Bourbon. Got a little better once it warmed. But , I am not going to under score it due to it being "Fresh". Just might need to Celler a bit. So FYI!

True to its name. Chocolate, cherries, coffee. Just the right amount of sweetness.

Lots of dark chocolate. Too bitter on the front and finish. Sweeter than expected but not overly sweet. Not really picking up any cherry flavors. Decent, but not one I’d buy again.

Cherry gives this a cough syrup aftertaste. Kinda off putting

Tasty, but really hope next year's has more bourbon-barrel presence.

For last call beer this 11.6 percent beer was not my idea. Most of u know who to blame. But I did need more cherry

Always wary of these adjuncts as IME they usually do not improve the brew, which is the case here. Relatively light touch with the adjuncts here but they still make their presence known. Still enjoyable but due to the base beer and in spite of the rest.

Aroma is cereals, chocolate, coffee, tastes of chocolate covered cherries, dark chocolate, smooth roast, bourbon has really toned down in this one, mellowed out nicely but thinning and frankly a bit underwhelming and not as robust, two yrs is too long?

More than a little coffee flavor, was hoping foe more chocolate cherry.

2nd try. I really want to love this because it sounds good, and I love Founders Brewery. It's just a bit too "thick" or something. Very dark chocolate flavor, not much bourbon flavor. I won't throw the rest in the trash, but probably won't buy more.

Really leans into the bourbon aspect, is a lot thinner and a lot less sweet than I would anticipate from a chocolate and cherry stout. Big roasty coffee notes.

A little sweet and a little bitter with the chocolate and coffee flavors. The cherry is not overpowering. The (chocolate) syrup and (cherry) juice flavors lower the quality of the overall taste for me. A little disappointing.

Don’t get a ton of cherry. Mostly coffee.

The chocolate and cherry add a nice sweetness to the straight KBS. A sipper for sure but good
