Canadian Breakfast Stout (CBS) (2023)

Stout - Imperial / Double Coffee

CBS is a bold imperial stout featuring chocolate and coffee that has aged in bourbon barrels with maple syrup. The sweet, but balanced, aromas of maple syrup and chocolate fill the air, while notes of toasted oak and vanilla become more profound with every sip – melding together in what can only be described as a transcendent drinking experience.

Sweet maple syrup and chocolate up front with the coffee and its bitterness at the apex for balance. Bourbon/wood/vanilla emerges in the aftertaste. Full body; mod CO2. Only gentle warmth for 11.7%; creamy and smooth. Though tasty it’s missing something.

Founders has brought back an old friend. CBS should be their flagship beer.Get some while you can. This is true Nectar of the Gods.

Mixed feelings on Founders in general these days, but I couldn’t resist trying the newest vintage of CBS. Because I lack convictions. Probably. Also, dang it, it’s still pretty delicious.

My last 4 check ins stated this may be my last one, as it was out of production. Not anymore baby! 🥓☕️🥃 I have to hold my lip when I sip because I'm still numbed up from my crown prep and I'm drooling like Kramer on Seinfeld. 🤤

Wow I missed this beer! I love the slight hint of chocolate and maple! Coffee comes out a little strong but overall well balanced

We are celebrating having decorated the Christmas tree with this nice Canadian Breakfast Stout, though it’s almost supper time. This beer is deep with coffee and chocolate flavors. Mocha in a beer!

Reminds of those creamy soft amber maple leaf candies. A bit of milk chocolate, a bit of oak. Very smooth for the ABV.

Smooth as I remember, I’m just missing some of that maple. Not nearly enough maple flavor, but incredibly drinkable for 11.7.
