The Story Behind The Bottle

Habits Bottle Shop
KBS, short for Kentucky Breakfast Stout, is one of Founders Brewing Co.'s most sought-after annual releases, a big, bold imperial stout brewed with premium chocolate and coffee, then aged in bourbon barrels for months before release. It's the kind of beer that rewards patience, both in the brewing process and in your cellar.
Expect a deep nose of bourbon, vanilla, and roasted coffee, with a rich, full-bodied palate layering dark chocolate and oak against warming bourbon barrel character, finishing long and complex. The barrel time adds a smoothness and depth that separates it from a standard imperial stout.
Serve it in a snifter at slightly above fridge temperature, and pair it with dark chocolate, aged cheese, or a cigar for the classic barrel-aged stout pairing. If you're a fan of bourbon barrel-aged beer, order Founders KBS online at Habits Bottle Shop while it's in stock.

On The Rocks
A single large-format ice cube slowly opens things up and softens the edges as it melts.
In A Cocktail
Works well as the backbone of a simple classic — let it do the heavy lifting.
