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?

Big chocolate notes coming out. Tastes like thick, cold brew coffee. Roasted malts, some tiny smoke and coffee beans. KBS Espresso should be on the menu at coffee houses 😇

Bottled 10-21-20. Been collecting dust in my basement for a couple years now. Cool rainy day had me craving a boozy stout. Touch on the bitter side but still drinking very well. Thick creamy head with excellent lacing for its age.

Took a risk on this one - big big espresso roast, seems to have done ok in the cellar. Some slight roasty bitterness on the end but otherwise a solid coffee stout. Not as dense as a bcbs coffee

Strong chocolate notes at the front end, strong coffee notes on the end. A sweet beer, but good.
