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?

Lovely KBS flavor(s) with just enough espresso to make it unique.

Good chocolate flavor. Tons of strong coffee flavor from the espresso. Good boozy smoothness from the bourbon barrel aging.

Like a fruity pour-over with a splash of bourbon. Much stronger coffee than KBS. Rich creamy body, bitter & quite dry.

There’s a lot of ☕️ here. It’s rife in the aroma and flavor. I let this sit for a while and tried taking my time with it. While this isn’t my favorite KBS variant, it’s still pretty darn good. It’s quite possible that I underrated this one last time.

Amps up the already notable coffee flavors, which works just great for me.

Kaffe dominerar med mörk choklad och en gnutta lakrits. Och lite nötcreme...

Still drinking nice with lots of roastiness, coffee has mellowed some. Smooth. 11/15/19 bottle.

Give it up Shitsburgh! It’s the curse of 2020, new year same shit. You won 11 in a row, but now, it’s done. I feel for you. Ravens won 14 in 2029. year lost in the playoffs 2020. 🤷🏼‍♂️🍻🤘🏈the gift keeps on giving.

Mørk brent esspresso + mørk brent bourbonfat = mørk brent og bittert øl! Sjokolade kommer fram som kakao. Pulver munnfølelse fra kakao og esspresso. Vanilje og eik fra fatet. Hinter av mørke tørke frukter og andre søte maltsmaker. Godt, dog mye esspresso.

Deep rich chocolate fudge with a dry oatmeal center, up front bitter and earthy “espresso” coffee with subtlety Oak notes and less “bourbon” notes with a silky smooth finish. Only think keeping this from a 5/5 is the lack of a genuine bourbon note. 4.5/5
