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.

After a 4 year hiatus. I think the prior years had more maple. This is sweet and coffee, but don't detect the maple like years past. Barrel is a little lighter too. I think 2019 was my favorite year followed by 2017.

Back in 2019, Founders "didn't plan to make CBS" anymore. Tough to believe since it's their highest rated beer. I'm glad they changed their plans. 2023's is a great as I remember. Sweet, maple syrup, coffee, boozy. Greatness continues!

Smells like bitter coffee and maple syrup. Tastes like coffee beans and sweet maple syrup with a hint of chocolate in the mix. Delicious breakfast stout.

Temporarily broke my Founders boycott to tick this for the first time. Hopefully they've changed their thinking/ways and stopped being racist, but still not likely to buy their beer.

Chocolate and coffee can't quite catch the maple yet as I am drinking it cold. But just how I remember it!! So glad it's back!!

Love the coffee essence to this, I feel I would get more maple from it if less boozy. Really enjoyed this!

Coffee, bourbon and a hint of chocolate. It’s missing the maple. It’s pretty good but different from what I remember. 10/16/2023

This takes me back to the good old days of finding a release event and waiting in line for hours just to get a pour. Decadently rich layers of chocolate, coffee, maple and vanilla all perfectly melded together none overpowering the other.
