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.

Holds up well after 3 years. Chocolate drops out a bit, but coffee remains.

This was a stowaway that I recently cracked open. When I say this was smooth, yet rich and full bodied coffee goodness. Whew.

Bottled March 11, 2019 - before Covid 🦠 BS I totally forgot s’mores and had a sweet tooth. Cracked this open and 🤤 what a perfect camping 🏕 🍺

It was useful for me to have had the 2020 vintage of this last night and then the 2019 vintage tonight. 2019 is more indicative of the best years of KBS. The Bourbon, cocoa, and coffee are all big and flavorful and well-balanced. I love both KBS and CBS.

Still big but thin, surprised at how much coffee is there, usually that mellows by now. Fading chocolate accentuates it.

Bottled over 3 years ago (2-7-2019). Bourbon flavors come out as it warms up. Still great notes of chocolate and coffee 🍫 ☕️

2019 vintage. KBS er stadig én af mine absolut foretrukne BBA stouts, men 3 år på flaske gør ikke noget godt ift øllets udvikling

Probably too early in the day to open a 12% alc beer, but it is a breakfast stout after all. And you can't drink all day if you don't start in the morning!

Nose a little weaker than 2018. Not as well developed but the roast is bolder. Sweet coffee with the same light bourbon hints.

Same flavor components as 2018, but the bourbon and coffee are stronger. Chocolate is coming out more as is warms a bit.

Sparkling coffee initially on the palette. Dark chocolate comes through when it reaches under the tongue. Smooth, boozy, lingering dark chocolate on the finish.

2018 best of the 3 - this one seems like it needs a little lore time to kill carbonation and settle flavors in.
