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?

Es más café que el propio café. Con bourbon y chocolate, además, pero eso: es hiperrealismo cafetero-cervecil. La mente se confunde y no sabe si emborracharse o espabilarse. ¡Bloqueo positrónico! … Bueno, no: sí se emborracha, pero dentro de la lucidez.

Smooth, heavy/deep coffee char. I don't drink coffee or even espresso for that, but from what I read it is supposed to be this so BGTD

My “sleep-aid” beer. Work is done before the “work” begins anew in the morning. Bought this for the nephew, Landon L. , but he’s turned to whiskey…..don’t blame him a bit!

Booze stands out more than other variants after a year of aging. Extra coffee / espresso not noticeable. Still the pinnacle of craft beers.

Lovely coffee overtones with a solid stout foundation. Hints of bourbon sweetness balance out the espresso.

Coffee Roast and Vanilla Dominated this one. Sitting on it for a year my have upped the Sweetness and mellowed the barrel notes. I think I preferred it fresh but still amazing.

There's a tinge of alcohol that kicks through everything. Sweetness has mellowed out.

The extra coffee here is extremely well done: it doesn't get any off green pepper note at all despite having a massive coffee nose and finish. Really great.
