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

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.

2019 release, not bad hardly any coffee flavor left. Probably past its prime but drinkable

Late check in. Cellar beers. Smoothed out with age, espresso isn’t as zippy but hasn’t turned. Bit of dusty cardboard on the back end but is mostly drowned out by a bittering cocoa powder, topped with some oak.

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

This has aged gracefully. Chocolate dominates, w/a touch of BB @ the end. Miss the #oldskool Founders. RIP🍻🍻

Wow! Huge coffee forward, bitter, mild chocolate, toasty, and oakey. Booze taste is low. Heavy, black, and not sweet. Very good!

Nice and smooth up front, bourbon essence has mellowed out nicely. Left some bitter coffee/cocoa on the back of my tongue, found it a nice finish.
