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?

Strong coffee aroma, big luscious body with roasted notes and deep long coffee bitterness on the finish. Very light sweetness, overall good brew but not as complex as previous KBS versions. Don't taste any bourbon.

A tad too much espresso flavor (very dark roast). Very little chocolate even as warms. Relativelt thin for a barrel age. Blah blah blah. 4.14

A good spin off of the regular KBS. Prefer the Mackinac fudge version more

Lots of coffee flavor as can be expected. Definitely better as it warmed. Not much barrel to make note of. Overall, a good readily available option in this style.
