Sadly not as good as 2016, which was not as good as 2015. This has an odd flavor profile and nose. Hoping my other bottles are better.

Beer share at Mike R’s. Really good, as usual

Tastes just like KBS to me so far. Gonna let it warm a bit. So far not getting any maple syrup flavor

Drank 12 oz of Breakfast Stout by Founders Brewing (2017-09-18)June 10th, 2018
Drank 16 oz of Java Cask by Victory Brewing (2017-10-25)June 3rd, 2018
2021-01-14
Very strong dark chocolate with a little too much bitterness. Coffee takes a back seat to the chocolate, but likely adds some bitterness of its own. Regardless, it’s really good.
2018-11-08
This tastes a bit more bitter than I remember. Perhaps this wasn’t stored properly. Just bought it but is a year old.
2017-12-27
Smells so good. Lots of bourbon and coffee on the nose. The only downside for me is the bitterness, which gets stronger on the aftertaste.
Drank Night Owl by Otto's Pub and Brewery (2018)June 1st, 2018
2018-06-01
Can taste the coffee. A bit too bitter for my taste though.

Drank 12 oz of KBS (Kentucky Breakfast Stout) by Founders Brewing (2014)April 16th, 2018
2024-11-29
Black Friday at HBS. Past its prime.
2020-05-03
This doesn’t take like KBS anymore. The only things I taste are dark chocolate and malt, but not the way it was and not in a good way. The coffee is long gone. There’s almost a soapiness to it at first. KBS is best fresh.
2018-04-16
Flavors tapered off over time. Still good, but it has lost something.
Drank 12 oz of KBS (Kentucky Breakfast Stout) by Founders Brewing (2015)April 16th, 2018
2020-05-04
Only trace hints of coffee left. Dark chocolate and malt are predominate. Fresh is still best. Got 2016-2109 lined up after this.
2018-04-16
Really good. Nice and smooth. No hints of vanilla left.
Drank 12 oz of KBS (Kentucky Breakfast Stout) by Founders Brewing (2016-02-12)April 16th, 2018
2024-02-18
Lots of coffee and dark chocolate. Definitely taste the age, but still enjoyable.
2022-11-30
Definitely taste the age. Still tons of coffee. Best fresh.
2020-05-04
This was their off year. I will say while it wasn’t good overall, it seems to have held up to where it was back then. Still best fresh.
2020-01-18
Either this was the off year or this didn’t hold up well. Flavors aren’t right. Maybe it will improve as it warms.
2018-04-16
2 years later, it still hasn't improved much.
2018-01-06
Slightly better than it was when fresh, but still not up to the standards of other years.
2017-04-05
It now has a year on it and hasn't improved much. This year's is fantastic; 2016 still is not.
2016-09-08
Still not any better. I think this year's batch will need 2-3 years before it tastes decent.
Drank 22 oz of Mexican Chocolate Peanut Butter Stout by Belching Beaver (2017-12-15)April 14th, 2018
2018-04-14
Good representation of the peanut butter. Hard to describe the flavor profile, but I’m enjoying it. Thanks Andrew M.
