KBS Espresso (2019)

Stout - Imperial / Double Coffee

KBS gets its coffee fix in the very first variant to come from our beloved bourbon barrel-aged stout. Yes, KBS may already be brewed with coffee, but it gets some extra oomph when it’s aged on espresso beans after being removed from barrels. The result is a fresh and snappy coffee twist on our classic barrel-aged beer. Who says you can’t start your day with a barrel-aged stout

Bottled November 2019. Not sure how it made it this far. Boozy and bitter.

Last of my 2019. Get the some of the bourbon up front as well as on the nose. The espresso comes in on the back.

Bottled on 11.18.19 and aged very well. The espresso was no joke but it went down really well.

En fin rund smak av espresso, bitter mörk choklad, bourbon, ek, russin, vanilj och lite karamell.

Legat på hyllan sedan 2019, kanske fallit från lite väl mycket. Kaffe (lite syrligt), rund sötma, lite nötighet men fortfarande ganska alkoholvärmande.

Reminds me of 40mm stout with the sharp cold coffee bite. Better creamier mouthfeel though.

Revist after the 2019 release. I don't see why I rated this a 5. While it is flavorful, the body is very thin, and leaves something to be desired. The coffee is great and the sting from the bourbon sits on the tongue, but there are better stouts.

It’s football time…in Tennessee! This is dangerously smooth. Coffee forward with chocolate syrup in the finish. No heat or boozy profile to it. Thiccc

Much of the espresso seems to have fallen off. Chocolate and oak compliment each other well. 8oz for me and 4oz for the chili.

I think the flavor aged out too much. A bit thin and flat

Definitely coffee forward but I like the mouth feel and bourbon little better on this than I do the underground mountain

5 years. Coffee is more faint, silky with some warmth, flavor fades fast. Better younger.

That’s a heckuvapour! Definitely big coffee flavor but I’ll say it kinda negates the KBSiness of the beer as the base already has coffee in it.

Slight chocolate notes before being taken over by roasted espresso. Boozy and actually watery. Was hoping for something a bit closer to the original.
