Canadian Breakfast Stout is an exclusive barrel-aged beer from Founders Brewing Company’s Barrel-Aged series. It is an imperial stout brewed with chocolate and coffee, then aged in barrels that previously held bourbon and subsequently Canadian maple syrup.

With an ABV of 11.7%, CBS is a bold, complex, and dessert-like beer that combines the richness of roasted malt with the sweet nuances of maple syrup. The aroma is dominated by fresh coffee, dark chocolate, bourbon vanilla, and maple sweetness, while the flavor is deep and layered - starting with espresso and cocoa notes, unfolding into warm alcohol, caramelized sugar, and maple syrup, and finishing with a soft, warming bitterness and subtle smokiness from the barrel. Its texture is thick, oily, and creamy, with low carbonation that enhances the decadent mouthfeel. Canadian Breakfast Stout is a beer meant for slow sipping - ideal for cold evenings and fans of strong, barrel-aged stouts.
