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?

Oh this is really lovely. Bold, boozy, rich, and full of espresso flavor. Big coffee aftertaste, really just coffee all the way down.

It’s been a long night so maybe I’ve been influenced, coffee is marginal.

Don't really get much of the coffee in this, unfortunately, but I really do like the BA "whiskey finish" of this beer

A fine cup of coffee(err beer), this is a coffee based beers around. Deep rich flavor and caffeine to spare.

This may be the definitive stout for coffee drinkers. The brilliance of kbs with beautiful espresso notes. Best had at room temperature, it's as thick as a boozy coffee milkshake. Smooth as velvet with no overpowering flavors, this is my favorite KBS.

Wszystko co najlepsze w KBS-ie podrasowane wyśmienitą kawą pięknie wyczuwalną w smaku i aromacie. Kawa tak intensywna że zostawia przyjemny posmak. Pozycja obowiązkowa dla fanów kawy. Idealne piwo na zakończenie Untapptd Virtual Festival Europe 🙂🍻

Where to start... delicious beer, no doubt. The espresso hits you on the nose and first on the tongue, but gives way to a balanced, roasty, chocolate trail with a diminuendo of oak barrel flavor. This is a must try if you get the chance.
