Imperial Stout

A local bar near me always has large promotions when they get new beers on tap. This week, they were promoting Founders KBS (Kentucky Breakfast Stout). I had never heard of this stout, let alone tried it, so I figured now would be a better time than any.

KBS is an imperial stout with 11.2 percent ABV. That is a rather high ABV, so it is advised to only drink a couple. Because the ABV is so high, KBS will be served in a 12oz glass when ordered.



This is a very heavy stout. It pours a dark black color, and is best served from a tap as opposed to a bottle. You can taste a hint of vanilla, chocolate, and toffee.

This beer paired well with meats and cheeses, but I had it with bowl of oatmeal, and it really hit the spot.
