KBS Blueberry

Stout - Imperial / Double Coffee

It’s time to celebrate two decades of barrel-aging imperial stouts with KBS Blueberry. In honor of the 20th anniversary of KBS, we’ve given this legendary beer a dose of Michigan blueberries. The alluring aroma of dessert brings you in, while layers of vanilla, coffee, chocolate, oak and bourbon barrel notes become more profound with every sip. A sweet and sophisticated tribute to a world-renowned beer

It has strong roast flavor with bourbon and a bit of sweetness with the blueberry. Blueberry is strong in the after taste than in the initial flavor. There are also some coffee notes in the background with a very light dark fruit touch.

Founders never fails. Light blueberry and a touch of fudge followed by the standard bourbon finish. 11.2%

Still great but the blueberry I don’t think mixes well,

I only had a taster of this, but that was enough. I enjoy KBS and its derivatives, but I didn't feel there was much blueberry flavor here. A bit of sweetness, but nothing that special: I'd stick to the original or other variants.

12oz bottle. Reminded me of a thinner, less flavorful Lizard of Koz. Lightly astringent coffee and slightly-tart blueberries with some underlying chocolate sweetness. Seemed like it was about to turn so I wouldn’t age this one...

Debate beers! This is everything I hope Lizard of Koz would be. Slightly sweet but not overpowering.

Smooth taste for the level of alcohol. I would appreciate a bit more blueberry presence. To me, this is excellent, careful though: expensive!!

Great flavor, slight bit of tart from the blueberry flavor (was hoping they went the sweeter route) but still delicious. Lots of roasted coffee flavor

Interesting contrast between the sweet blueberries and malty booziness

Once again, Founders has outdone themselves. Traditional KBS with the slightest hint of Blueberry make this Stout absolutely delightful. Cheers!!! 🍺

I think a 4 is a fair rating for this but KBS was my favorite beer for a while so that gives it a boost. One of the weaker variants for me. KBS body is thin and the blueberry presents with a tartness that overwhelms the barrel. Good but not great.

It's acceptable. Still has the good body you expect from KBS, but the blueberry and coffee notes are discordant. Maybe my least favorite KBS.
