More About Me

Behold, I am the legendary Founders KBS, the embodiment of Kentucky Breakfast Stout—a true pioneer born out of audacious ambition. 

I spent a year nestled within bourbon barrels, their depths concealed within the former gypsum mines nearby. Uncertainty shrouded my aging process, but when the time came to taste my creation, my brewmasters knew they had stumbled upon something truly extraordinary.

The secrets of my perfected recipe are now yours to savor. Brace yourself for an epic encounter with an immense, barrel-aged Imperial Stout boasting extravagant quantities of coffee and chocolate. As you succumb to my charms, you'll discover a luxurious, velvety texture that caresses your palate, while whispers of vanilla, cocoa, and roasted coffee dance upon your taste buds. And within the depths of my essence, you'll uncover the alluring embrace of charred oak, bestowing a touch of smoky enchantment.

My esteemed reputation precedes me, as beer enthusiasts from far and wide clamor for a taste of my sublime creation. Surrender to the passage of time as you indulge in the artful mastery that is Founders KBS. Let me be your guide to a world where boldness meets sophistication, where every sip reveals a story worth sharing. Cheers to seizing the extraordinary.

Founders Brewing Co

Since its founding in 1997, Founders Brewing, which is famed for producing several highly-rated craft beers, has grown to become the 14th largest brewery in the US today. From coffee-infused stouts to bourbon barrel-aged ales, no one can accuse Founders of being dull – they push way too many delicious (and award-winning) boundaries! The brewery is also big on their sustainability and charity efforts and has since saved millions of gallons of water, diverted 90% of waste and even launched its own charitable platform.
