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?

Vind hem behoorlijk boozy en verder niet bijzonder veel smaak. Is ook een ouder flesje.

I hate to be harsh, but for the price this doesn’t add up to the KBS name, it’s seriously chocholetly a tad on the bitter side for a stout.

Nice and roasty. The barrel flavors come off more as vanilla and sweetness

Barrel aged note of smell, slight bitter coffee taste, very little carbonation, missing something

It's unquestionably high quality, and quite good...but...it just didn't do a ton for me, at least not relative to the straight KBS I've had.

It is what it is. I liked it better fresh. Aged 14 months…much more espresso bean-y now and thinner. Maybe I should have waited longer?

I have to be honest in this review. I didn’t love the expresso taste in this one. The stout was less bold-tasting than anticipated

Malty. Smooth. Rich. Sweet. Oddly enough, more coffee nose than flavor. More chocolate on the palette.
