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

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

Doft av kaffe, mörk choklad och ekfat. Fyllig munkänsla. Smak av kaffe, mörk choklad och ekfat. Något bitter och torr eftersmak med inslag av kaffe och ekfat.

I am on the fence on this. I first tried a variant in March 2020 at Monk's Pub shortly before the lockdown, and my sense of it was that the extra coffee added bitterness. KBS and CBS are two of my favorite beers, but this is thinner and more bitter.

Roasty real bitter from the coffee. Sweetness from the chocolate and barrel. Quality stuff.

Enjoying this much more now that it has mellowed out a bit. Still strong coffee, but doesn't completely overpower everything else

19-11-18 Vtg, 1yr/o! Rich, spicy coffee and notes of cocoa. Warm, with notes of fiery wood character and sharp molasses. Hints of vanilla and cream. Aging well, as KBS does.
