Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2019)

Stout - Imperial / Double Coffee

What we’ve got here is an imperial stout brewed with a massive amount of coffee and chocolates, then cave-aged in oak bourbon barrels for an entire year to make sure wonderful bourbon undertones come through in the finish. Makes your taste buds squeal with delight.

Side by side taste test 2019 & 2020. 2019 is smoother & 2020 is boozier

Pretty strong... the only beer I could think of that would stand up to toasted marshmallow ice cream.

Thick and chewy. Lingers nicely. Lots of coffee in this edition. As a barrel aged stout seems to have a sweet spot between too boozy and not boozy enough. Bourbon is rather subtle. Some chocolate.

They haven’t made a KBS that isn’t a five, but this 2019 is a 5+!

I guess at this point it is brunch beer instead of breakfast beer? This is bourbon boozy for sure! Getting some chocolate and coffee also. A touch of alchohol burn on the end. That will definitely wake one up! Thanks for the trade Arthur B. !

My last KBS forever(thank goodness) so I figured I go out with a bang. Cinnamon Toast Crunch made it not suck.

Catching up from last night. Should I have used 2019 for Werewolf Blood? Not sure. Was it a mistake? No. Thinking KBS Maple Mackinac Fudge could be the base for tonight's Werewolf Blood.

Still drinking fine. Incidentally, I made a Werwolves Blood with half of this, and it was a muddled mess.

Prune/date with molasses on the nose. Teriyaki and chocolate on the finish. Barrel has mellowed over time, which is nice.

Election day! I just voted. Also, 4 weeks ago I sent in my absentee ballot, and at Noon I'll hit the polling station. I'm pretty sure that's the process. #voteearlyandoften.

Ein wirklich interessantes Bier. Extrem intensiver Geschmack nach Kaffee und dunkler Schokolade, dazu mit 12,2% genau das richtige Bier für einen kalten Abend. Großen Dank an Lasse
