KBS Espresso (2020)

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?

Even better than KBS original! I really like the bold coffee finish.

Rich aromas of dark roasted coffee, dark chocolate, roasted malt, and pistachio. Smooth mouthfeel. Thick and creamy texture. Heavily bodied. You can actually feel the rich crema of the espresso coffee well dissolved in the KBS in this beer. Well balanced.

Zware koffie tonen, maar de barrel ook duidelijk proefbaar. Prima koffie stout.

Høj klasse, men er den mærkbart bedre end originalen.....? Jeg kan "ikke huske" det (drikker for meget 😉)

Wiski tynnyrissä kypsytetty, kahvin ja vähän suklaan makuinen stoutti, paahteinen ja paksu

Struggle with the lack of sweetness. Coffee is nice. Color is as expected. Seems a bit thin.

Very tasty, though I think I like the original better. Maybe this would be better if it aged a little longer.
