Happy Hour 15 Header1 Happy Hour 15: Kentucky Breakfast Stout

We’ve reached into the archives to release a “lost” episode of The Happy Hour. Back in 2010, Jason and Mike were lucky enough to receive a bottle of Founders Kentucky Breakfast Stout. This annually released beer shouldn’t be considered a simple oaked version of Founders Breakfast Stout, but is a wholly different beer. Kentucky Breakfast Stout is a bourbon barrel-aged imperial stout brewed with coffee and chocolate. It’s tempting to draw parallels between KBS and Goose Island Bourbon County Stout, or more specifically, the Bourbon County Coffee Stout. The beer leads coffee and is bourbon second.

Kentucky Breakfast Stout is good. But it fits the bill better as an after dinner desert, rather than a breakfast starter.

KBS should be hitting the shelves in March of 2012.
