No tall tales, no bad jokes, rhymes or made-up anecdotes. If you need a joke, look no further than the label with those four ugly mugs. The beer you’re holding in your hand is a strong stout brewed with maple syrup and aged on Jack Daniels-flavored wood chips. Need anything more? Then you’re gonna need to set up your own brewery, distillery and woodshop, and learn how to harvest maple syrup. Sounds like too much work? Don’t blame us. Blame Canada. We wouldn’t have brewed this beer if it hadn’t been for the Founders KBS Stout, and without Canada there would be no KBS. So Blame Canada. Now drink it already!

Pours black with head instantly disappearing. The carbonation is too high, in the aroma some delicate dark malts and hint of nice alcohol which may be from the wooden chips soaked in jack daniels, some rudiments of something that might be a clone syrup. In taste its dry and pretty bitter, high level of burnt malts and absolutely no clone syrup. FES with clone syrup and wooden chips was a great idea, I expected pretty complex FES but this beer is unfortunately dry, with not exactly hidden alcohol level and no signs of clone syrup. Maybe it should have been fermented to 7 or 7,5abv instead of 8 for fuller mouth-feel and more sweet-like taste, for now its pretty dry. Maybe may critical review is based on high expectations that I had from the deScription of this beer.
