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?

Un tout bon imperial stout café, qui plus est, barrel aged. Une tuerie.

Bottled 11.14.19 , still drinking pretty smooth. Barrel character is apparent and quickly dominated the palate. Medium body, espresso is there but has died out a bit, bakers chocolate bitterness that finished dry to a point. Worse with age?

Coffee is bitter and a bit to dominant. Needs more stout and bourbon character.

Bottled date 23.04.2020. It's like basic KBS but with some milk and hazelnut notes. I would say that most noticeable is chocolate, coffee is somewhere in the back. But that doesn't change a fact that it's good beer.

Since the Knust family is staying at our house while we aren’t there, we thought we would stay at Cousin Ami and Hannah’s house in Grand Rapids while they aren’t there!! 🙃

Lækker duft af kaffe og kakao. Bliver lidt tynd når den er kold men både fylde og smag udvikler sig vildt positiv efter lidt tid og varme i glasset. Nok engang en påmindelse af at mørkt øl ikke må være for kold.

Dark and thick with a deep coffee expression, a little boozy and sweet.

(4.1) Nose of molasses, soft bourbon, oak, properly roasty espresso, bittersweet dark chocolates and roasted malts. On the palate, semi-sweet and roasty molasses, bold roasty espresso, followed by bittersweet dark chocolates and more roasty espresso in...
