Beer Flash: Founder's Breakfast Stout

Just a quick post about Founder's Breakfast Stout, which I got on draft at D'Vines. It's an 8.3% ABV double chocolate coffee oatmeal stout that is incidentally one of the only beers rated a pure 100/100 on BeerAdvocate. This means that both the user community and BeerAdvocate founders Jason and Todd Alstrom have rated it a perfect score.

I had it at Shirlington in the fall, and saw it on the draft menu at D'Vines. I ended up getting the last of the keg!

It pours slowly, and ends up being nice and deep with strong alcohol flavors up front. Not too chocolaty or sweet but is very smooth, uncommonly so. I'm most impressed at the careful balancing of flavors here - it makes for a remarkably drinkable stout that would be great for the novice beer drinker. Very delicious!
