Founders Breakfast Stout
This stout pours a thick, oily, opaque black. An aggressive pour yields a thin, dark tan head that leaves some thin lacing behind. Smells just like fresh coffee grinds. Malty, chocolate, toasted malts. Taste is toasted, burnt malts, bitter coffee, bitter cocoa. There's a bit of sweetness. Nice warming alcohol lingers a bit after the sip. This beer is very rich and robust, a slow sipper. Medium amount of carbonation, full bodied brew. The burnt malts almost become a bit cloying after a while which hurts the drinkability. But I really do appreciate the way the malts present themselves in this beer.
