GRAND RAPIDS, MI - It's official. Founders is bringing back CBS.

Last bottled in 2011, Canadian Breakfast Stout is one of the most sought-after craft beers in the United States.

The beer was quietly brewed and released in kegs only in 2014, but has since remained elusive except for sporadic reappearances.

There have been rumblings that the Grand Rapids brewery was bringing back the popular imperial stout for months now, but Founders confirmed the news to its Cadre members on Oct. 30.

The brewery had been dropping hints of the beer's return on social media for several days.

The 10.6 percent alcohol by volume beer is brewed with a blend of coffees and imported chocolates, then aged in spent bourbon barrels that have most recently been aging pure Michigan maple syrup. It is the sixth and final release in the 2017 Barrel-Aged Series.

CBS will be available everywhere, including the Grand Rapids taproom, on draft and in 750 mililiter bottles beginning on Dec. 1. It will have a suggested retail price of $24.99 a bottle.

Similar to Founders' annual release of KBS, CBS will be released via an online ticket sale. More info will be available after a public announcement next week.

The rest of Founders' 2017 barrel-aged series includes Frootwood, KBS, Doom, DKML and Backwoods Bastard.
