Beer of the Week

The beer: Breakfast Stout

Brewed by: Founders Brewing Company, Grand Rapids, Michigan

Description (from the website): "The coffee lover’s consummate beer. Brewed with an abundance of flaked oats, bitter and imported chocolates, and two types of coffee, this stout has an intense fresh-roasted java nose topped with a frothy, cinnamon-colored head that goes forever.

Would I buy it again?: I've been wanting to try this particular beer for a while, I've heard a lot of good things. It has a score of 100 on BeerAdvocate, which is as high as you can get. Is it the best beer ever? Well, I didn't think so, but it was definitely pretty good. I'd definitely get it again, but not in the summer. A thick stout filled with coffee is not the greatest idea on a hot summer day.
