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?

Doesn’t taste like 12%. Definitely chocolate and espresso, subtle bourbon notes. Full bodied.

Chocolate, dark espresso, caramel, vanilla, roasty malts, some oak, and a small hit of bourbon. Quite smooth, creamy enough, sweeter-side, medium body, good carbonation, roasty, rich, fairly strong, w/some small backend heat (@12%). 4.35.

I love KBS. I also love coffee. The espresso in this one is a bit too much.

Een heerlijke stout, waar de bourbon BA prima uitkomt samen met de koffietonen!

Can’t believe this is the first KBS I’m checking in. Excellent BA flavor and love the espresso beans. Pours with a nice thick head and the foam is delicious. Big roasty character and drinks pretty light, goes down smooth. Perfect after dinner treat.

Not as good as the Mackinac Fudge but right in par with og KBS. Big rich dark chocolate and espresso.

Cannot say my pallet is the most discerning, but I will finish the night with a KBS Espresso while hiccuping. Fuck we will see if I sleep with this careful arrangement of Espresso coffee forward with vanilla allows for sleep.

Thanks Nicholas P. for the bottle. Love the straight up espresso dominance. Heavy, rich, boozy. What a breakfast stout should be.
