Japanese Inaka Breakfast

Believe it or not, the term "Kentucky Breakfast" was around long before Founders brewed up Kentucky Breakfast Stout, now KBS.

True Kentuckians will know a true Kentucky Breakfast is just a couple of shots of bourbon in the morning. That will start your day off right.

Many don't know of the Japanese Inaka Breakfast, though. It's simple really. Some 2010 Baird Beer's Morning Coffee Stout, and some Hachi-no-ko, or stewed up bees and larvae.



Yummy!



* Remember to post some questions for James Watt of Brewdog in the post below!

DH, you're probably the only one in Japan (including the brewer) who's had the coffee stout -- it's still not officially released. You're just lucky you knew the secret handshake!

DH said...

Chris! I drank another bottle of it tonight! Delicious although different from last years.

Hope to have it on tap next weekend....impossible????

Chris Poel said...

Release dates all depend on the Big Boss. He mentioned before that it would be released in February, but it doesn't look like that's happening. I'll see what I can do to speed things up for next weekend.

It should be on tap now. Nice.
Questions for Brewdog...
Do I have to be nice?

Chris Poel said...

Chuwy -- The Coffee Stout was released today, so it should be available at many pubs tomorrow and beyond.

As for Brewdog, you don't have to be nice -- be honest, but try to be a bit polite.

Chuwy said...

I do try to be polite but as usual if I offend it's usually down to misunderstanding on my part or a communication failure.
DH, no pressure to ask any of my questions!

Chris Poel said...

I saw your questions after I posted -- they're good. I hope DH uses at least most of them.

Chris Poel said...

By the way, see you in Numazu on Saturday?

Chuwy said...

Hope so. I'll give DH at least a few hours with you before I time my entrance! Then I expect everyone will have to 'go back to work' or 'get something out of the oven'!

Chris Poel said...

I'll be coming from work -- special work day this coming Saturday. Which means I'll get to Taproom around 5:00 or so, probably. Don't be too late after that or I'll have to leave -- work on Sunday too!

Oh, and I really do have something in the oven.

And my dog needs shampooing.

And you're a really nice guy, but I'm already seeing someone.

DH said...

Questions are going out today!

Chuwy said...

Damn! I knew it! You're already seeing someone! Who is he? I'll scratch his eyes out!
DH, no pressure to use the kittten and the puppy question...

DH said...

Chuwy, I can't even remember it! Send it again!
