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?

I like this a lot...I like it more than the maple fudge for sure.

‘20 release born on 11/14/19? Continues to smooth out. Plenty of espresso while being less abrasive. Nice hint of sweetness.

Just bottled on 10/15. Pretty boozy. It’s good, but I’ll let it sit awhile.

Nice blend of dark roast coffee with Bourbon flavor. Thin mouthfeel, not much chocolate.

That is one intense coffee forward stout. Almost offensive. But I dig it! Better body on this than OG KBS.

Probably 4.35. Very good. I just wish the coffee wasn’t as bitter and the whole thing was a tad sweeter. Otherwise, really solid.

Wish it had a tad more left of the bourbon taste, but still. Coffee supreme

Serious amounts of coffee. Borderline OTT. Lost the traditional KBS taste to it.

The nose is full on coffee... As far as the taste goes, there is so much coffee, the stout and the barrel age kind of fall off. I'm not saying it's not tasty... but it's full on coffee. I think there is better versions of KBS than this one.

Good espresso, but still harsh. Gonna throw a couple aside...6 months should do it some good.
