hopIQ found 10 beers with the same chocolate and coffee character as CBS. CBS, short for Canadian Breakfast Stout, uses the same coffee and chocolate imperial stout as KBS but matures it in bourbon barrels that previously held maple syrup. It comes in at 11.7 percent. Maple syrup and roasted coffee dominate the aroma, joined by chocolate, vanilla and bourbon, while toasted oak grows with each sip. Sweetness is moderate and the body full. After a long pause the beer came back in 2023 and now appears as a winter release. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
