    Cool find. I voted other as Dark Horse BB PT5 is my absolute favorite stout. Lots of great ones on that list though!

    There are many very good ones that have no votes yet; this poll needs to get some exposure. The ones currently on top may be getting all of the votes as the reason why, but these are tough choices. Let's vote twice. :wink:

    As always, Expedition Stout is overlooked for crazier imperials. You take your KBS. I'll take Expedition with a year on it.

    I voted for Breakfast Stout, it got me into craft. While I love KBS, CBS, Plead the 5th, etc... nothing beats a great, easy to find, amazing stout. Look forward to it every year.

    Only a year? God that stuff starts to get magical at the 3-4 year mark! I agree though. Don't know why this beer gets so taken for granted.

    You guys are both so right! I had one last night that was bottled in January and it was spectacular! I listed my top 3 "Too hard to chose list" as: Pt5th, FBS and Founders Imperial Stout, but after last night it gets even harder... I'm just so glad we get to enjoy these with ease here in Michigan!

    It looks like someone from Right Brain sat at their computer changing their IP address to vote a million times. CEO stout is delicious but falls to AT LEAST 7th or 8th in my poll.

    Wouldn't it be easier to get BA ratings for each of those and call that the "winner"?
    I don't really care. I like what I like.
    I had a Cali stout yesterday.

    It was a Michigan poll. Not BA.

    With too many to choose from I had to pass it up, but it will be my next vote if I were to vote a third time. :wink: How's that for some love?

    These polls are more about who can get the most facebook people to vote.

    Totally agree man, it is a beautiful thing with 3+ years. I do love some fresh KBS too though :grinning:

    I voted Founders Imperial Stout.... I still believe this to be the best of all of Founders stouts, FBS is great also, KBS is way over rated IMO... I'll take a BCBS or a CW BBS if I want a Bourbon stout. Something about FIS just blows me away everytime, so glad it is so much easier to get then beers like KBS.

    I'm in on this, too. FIS is crazy good and underrated. More for me, I guess.
