Canadian Breakfast Stout (CBS) (2018) W

Yep, pretty perfect right now. Balanced oak, light maple syrup, coffee, roast.

Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2019) W

2019. Continued to mellow with age. Still an oaky backbone with a bit of bourbon bite and coffee.

Kbs (2023) W

2023 shared. Very roasty, oaky. Somewhat thin compared to a lot of the similar styles out now. Thanks Jordan H.!

Canadian Breakfast Stout (CBS) (2019) W

Canadian Breakfast Stout (CBS) (2019) W

Time goes quickly! Bottled 9/17/2019. First time I've had this vintage from a bottle, now aged close to 4.5 years. A lot of wood, but maybe a bit mellowed. A brief bitter molasses note passes. Lots of maple syrup to balance the roast.

Canadian Breakfast Stout (CBS) W

2018, over a year since last 2018 bottle. Lots of chocolate and pleasant maple syrup. Light roast and coffee emerge. Mild oak. Sweet, pleasant, balanced. Very tasty now still.

Canadian Breakfast Stout (CBS) (2017) W

2017. Very chocolaty. Oaky and sweet with maple syrup. Plenty of bourbon flavor, toffee, coffee, but not so strong as many BBA beers now. I guess I like them all? Nicely balanced. Very smooth.

Classic Gueuze W

Recent check-in with J at Sim Coe. Still on tap, if I'm not mistaken. People don't know. Go get it, and then have some other great options there! How often do you see this on draft around here, if you see it at all? Check hours before you visit.

Classic Gueuze W

Surprise on tap! Clean, sour, pleasant and easy, as always.

BoDeGose W

Guava, pepper. Lightly sweet overall but has a quite sweet candy-like Sweet Tart note among the otherwise mildly sour flavor.

Re-Gen-Ale W

Balanced hops, malt, and fruit. Lands on the hoppy, heavy DIPA side. Citrus mix, hints of tropical fruit, biscuity malt.

Mangonada Stargazer W

Mild. Less mango than I expected. Apricot, pear, tart tropical fruit that may be starfruit.

Eightfold Math W

Grapefruit, lemon, lime, a hint of spicy lemongrass and ginger, maybe some other melon-like fruity flavors. Quite tasty.

Biere De Coupage: Le Vigneron W

Oaky, heavy-bodied. Mouth-watering, lightly vinegary note. Citrus and apricot. Somewhat yeasty. Might feel acidic in larger quantities.

Utopias Barrel-Aged 120 Minute IPA W

Boozy but smooth. Sweet with dark fruits, caramel, toffee. Rich and desserty.

In the Darkness Below W

Rich, chocolaty, mildly salty, and oyster-flavored. Coffee finish. Very good.

Black Is Beautiful Vol. 2 W

Clean-tasting. Light stone fruit notes, hints of spices. Mild cinnamon. Very balanced.

Hazy Squall W

Juicy, a little tangy. Lots of citrus, mostly orange, tangerine, etc.

Citrus Squall W

Tons of grapefruit in every way. Nose upfront, sweet, juicy flavor, and just a touch of zest. Very fruity, very easy. Almost crushable. I'd never guess it's ABV. I admit I'm surprised at how much I enjoy this.

Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2019) W

Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2016) 12.4% W

On left. Last bottle from 2/16/2016. Very smooth but with a long, mild, warm finish. Bourbon and roasty coffee with notes of chocolate and wood.

Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2019) W

On right. From 2/6/2019. Still well carbonated. Wood prominent, plenty of chocolate, and some coffee, finishing with a bourbon bite, though not hot. Quite different from the 7.5 year-old 2016.

Drink'in The Sun (0.3%) W

Saving room for later. This is quite tasty for virtually NA. Citrusy with a sweet, tangy note, and tastes a little more IPA-like than wheat ale, but some wheat/grain notes. Light and easy. Decent enough body.

Chocolate Cherry KBS W

Roasty and chocolaty, lightly fruity and sweet with cherry juice, especially near the end. After the cherry, finishes dry and woody.

Canadian Breakfast Stout (CBS) (2017) W

Lots of maple syrup and chocolate. Bourbon flavor throughout and into a long, pleasant finish.

Sang Bleu (2022) W

2022 bottled 1/31/2023. Cork says 2022. Bottled 1/31/2023. Floral, fruity nose. Nicely sweet and sour. Strong berry flavor. Not as vinegary as many of Cantillon's lambics. Slight dry funk emerges among the generally sweet, mouth-watering flavor.

Canadian Breakfast Stout (CBS) W

2017. Initially served room temp. Roast is prominent, and maple syrup adds nice sweetness among the dark coffee age chocolate flavors. Chilled a little, wood flavor returned.

Grand Cru Bruocsella Lambic Bio (2014) W

Smooth, sweet, funky, fruity. Apple, apricot.

Canadian Breakfast Stout (CBS) W

2017. Haven't had since 2020. Oaky, smooth, sweet with maple, chocolate, bourbon, brewed coffee. Balanced and smooth but still with some strong bourbon. Spice develops late in the long finish. Doing great about 6 years later. Oak is prominent and perfect.

Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2018) W

2018. Tasting very balanced, very woody, almost dry. Cocoa powder, smooth bourbon.

Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2017) W

Woody coffee with a sort of flat bourbon flavor. Still a good balance, but this might be losing its oomph after close to 6 years.

Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2016) 12.4% W

Pretty much 7 years old now. This vintage really held up. Still tastes of bourbon, booze, wood, and chocolate on a roasted coffee base. The newer ones seem sweeter and may have lost more bite. Of course, I do like KBS fresh, often more than aged.

World Wide Stout - Bourbon Barrel Aged W

11/1/2019.

Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2018) W

Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2018) W

Bottled 3/7/2018, now aged about 4.5 years. Drinking pretty perfectly right now. Great balance of wood, chocolate, coffee, and bourbon. Long, slow, warming finish. Flavor is mellow with each note present but in harmony. No bite to the bourbon.

Canadian Breakfast Stout (CBS) (2018) W

2018. Ton of maple flavor. Thick, lacing in the glass. Slowly warming in the chest. Maple, chocolate, oak, coffee.

Wake Up World Wide Stout (2022) W

2022. Roasty, tangy. A lot of coffee. Cinnamon spice and a sweet note. Raisins, berry. Hint of chocolate among the coffee finish, a little bitter. Very tasty, but not my favorite among the WWS series.

Solera No. 2 W

Solera No. 2 W

Sweet, white wine aroma, maybe overripe if it were wine, but more of a sweet, yeasty aroma for beer. A lot of oak. Sweet lemon-lime. Dry note, somewhat dry finish on the tongue, although a wet sweetness lingers at the top of the palate. Acidic.

World Wide Stout - Bourbon Barrel Aged (2019) W

2019, specific time stamp generally illegible on this batch. After warming a bit, mostly chocolate bourbon stands out.

Black & Blue W

This is great. Fruity with plenty of berry flavor, but it doesn't overpower the malty beer, and it isn't too sour.

Oak-Aged Vanilla World Wide Stout (2017) W

Bottled 6/15/2017, recently bought at DFH. Raisin and vanilla aroma. Oaky, lots of vanilla. Still nicely carbonated.

Solera No. 1 W

Sweet, sour white grape juice, wine. Acidic.

World Wide Stout - Bourbon Barrel Aged W

2019. Bourbon, raisin, dark chocolate aroma. Rich chocolate, fig, some raisin, and a lot of bourbon without any harshness. Well balanced. Really fantastic at this point, though I don't know what it was like new in 2019. I'd never guess it's 18%.

L'allegro W

Solera No. 1 W

Sweet, acidic. Sweet white wine and lemon.

Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2022) W

Somehow forgot this was in the FRONT of the fridge! We enjoyed it with dinner!

L'allegro W

This is delicious. I wish I'd bought more. Belgian yeast renders a lot of spice, flavor. Strong grain flavors. Lightly floral, and a pleasant, sweet (honey) finish gives it a balanced, malty body.

Fleur Fleurie W

Quite sweet. Tart berry mix. A bit floral... hibiscus. Light funk and wood note.

Northern Composure W

Had this yesterday. It wasn't in UT yet, but I figured they'd add it soon. Lemon zest, light sweet note. Pale malts.

The Black Briny W

Mild salinity. Woody, sort of mesquite, and a bit roasty.

Fair amount of pine. Roasty and increasingly so. Dank finish.

Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2016) 12.4% W

Vertical 2016-2019 from the cellar. Pretty similar. Older two are more woody, less carbonated. Newer two have more chocolate flavor. All are pretty heavy on coffee & bourbon flavor, though it tastes different depending on the wood/chocolate combination.

Utopias Barrel - Aged World Wide Stout (2021) W

2021.

Monk's Brew (2017) W

2017. Malty, a lot of caramel, fig, and some dark bread. A bit of raw alcohol still. As it warms, less alcohol and more nuttiness and toffee develop. Great with Alpine cheese and Gouda, good with cheddar, less good with brie.

Bottled 9/2/2021. Sweet and roasty. Lots of cinnamon. Coffee and chocolate.

Canadian Breakfast Stout (CBS) (2018) W

2018. Closest thing I had to what I wanted to serve with a southern-style dinner with pulled pork and sides. Maybe sweeter than I would have preferred for the pairing, but still tasty. Chocolate, woody, with maple. Smooth and balanced.

Mango Smoovie W

Mildly sour. Mango and a bit of light citrus, lemon or tangerine. Refreshing with light-moderate body.

Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2019) W

2019, about 2.5 years old. Very smooth. Light oak. Nice spice and the usual flavors. This has developed well, as much as I like drinking KBS fresh.
