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

Not sure which coffee was used. Tastes a bit bitter.

Bottled 11/14/2019. Still loaded with espresso coffee flavor. Mild barrel, somewhat thin when cold. Warming increases the barrel and perceived thickness. Very good.

Bottled 11/13/19 for 2020 release. Watching Red Dragon. Edward Norton is great. Beer is typical founders stout. Just trying to clear room for better options.

Gives little on the nose, but plenty of coffee resting on top of the usual bourbon, alcohol warmth and smooth character of the KBS. Nice twist on the original, if you like your coffee. Sweetness from the bourbon balanced well with the bitter coffee.

Pretty tasty a year out. Really rich roasted flavor but the fresh coffee nuisances are missing a bit. Still excellent.
