Founders KBS

Founders' KBS, or Kentucky Breakfast Stout, has been at the top of beer aficionados lists for years as the ultimate in barrel-aged stout pleasure. It's intense, bold and flavorful, with all the stuffing to cellar well for years. The nose overflows with aromas of bittersweet chocolate, espresso, Bourbon-soaked vanilla bean and roasted malt. Those notes continue through to the dense, creamy palate, with additional flavors of brown bread, molasses, cigar, dried plum and date. Woody spice and sweet vanilla tones linger long on the finish.
