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?

Breakfast of champions... tons of coffee, milky, boozy and strong. Excellent with bacon.

Even better after some bottle age. The coffee is simply less forward and bitter (less screaming "look at me!")...and has melded together to form a more seamless experience. I do enjoy this even better (now) than regular KBS.

Life sucks at the moment, but at least I can “control beer” and make sure that this aspect of my life is of quality. And what a great beer it is, too. Anyways fantastic 🍻

So damn coffee heavy. Smells of freshly roasted beans. Sips sweet and smooth. Drinks full but less heavy than it’s 12% ABV. Admittedly I have a soft spot for coffee stouts and this not only tugs, but tears at my heart strings. My advise, stock up!

Last bottle & it’s time; coffee continues to fade and green peppers are present; chocolate, oak and bourbon on backend. Downgrading to a 4.5. Drink these sooner than later. Happy Thanksgiving y’all!

Coffee is there, but mellowed a bit with age. Chocolate is nice and smooth, mild booze.
