Founder's Breakfast Stout

Beer blogging is a hobby for me. I have the Navy and college that take priority (or are supposed to, anyways). Because of that, sometimes I post a blog a few days after I enjoy a beer. This one, however, is pushing a week, and I feel a bit bad about that because this is one of the best beers I have tried in a long time. I had heard about Founder's incredible stouts, but I had yet to try any of them. So when Grape and Gourmet posted that they got some Breakfast Stout in stock, I seized the day!

Poured into my porter/stout glass, Breakfast Stout is as dark black as they come with a mocha head that quickly faded to a small cap. Big coffee nose on this one, not much else makes it through. Now, for the taste. Let me start by saying this. If you gave this to me blindly and offered it to me as a chilled coffee, I would probably not question you. Someone who doesn't drink beer but likes good coffee would definitely not question you, other than perhaps to ask why you chilled this coffee. If I haven't made myself clear, this beer tastes like a high quality, dark roast coffee with a hint of mocha in the follow up. It is unbelievably delicious. I see why they call this a breakfast stout, because if it weren't for social taboos and the risk of being called an alcoholic, I could have this with my eggs and pancakes. Who knows, perhaps I'll stash one away and do just that on my birthday. After all, nobody judges you for drinking at the crack of dawn on your birthday, St Patrick's Day, or apparently at sporting events. Anyone who knows me that in my case, my birthday will be my first opportunity. In closing, I think this is my new favorite stout. You should go get some! Now! Hurry before its gone! Ha ha, and enjoy! Cheers!
