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?

A nearly perfect beer. TONS of coffee, a bunch of chocolate, and a bourbon boozy finish. I hate that CBS is gone, but this will make everything ok as it definitely fills the void.

Nez chocolat gourmand, café noir et notes liquoreuse de bourbon. En bouche attaque très gourmande puis touche de bourbon café. Finale avec l'amertume et la torréfaction du café maîtrisée. Excellent.

Coffee is present in the aroma and strongly present in the aftertaste. The middle is barrel and a bit of heat. A little touch of sweetness. Close to but not quite a 5
