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?

There’s a lot of ☕️ here. It’s rife in the aroma and flavor. I let this sit for a while and tried taking my time with it. While this isn’t my favorite KBS variant, it’s still pretty darn good. It’s quite possible that I underrated this one last time.

Amps up the already notable coffee flavors, which works just great for me.

BOURBON, nice coffee notes on the end. Better as it warms up. A nice sipper. Coffee with breakfast

Kaffe dominerar med mörk choklad och en gnutta lakrits. Och lite nötcreme...

Still drinking nice with lots of roastiness, coffee has mellowed some. Smooth. 11/15/19 bottle.

Beautiful coffee nose. The chocolate, bourbon, malt roast, and coffee all dance together on your tongue, creating a complex flavor which really evolves over time. The ingredients are simultaneously inseparable and distinguishable. Beautiful. Good to age.

Me muero toa. Si alguna vez me caso, solo quiero beber esto. Granos de café deliciosos en una stout aterciopelada, con toques suaves de bourbon que no molestan, complementan. Sin dulzor estridente, alcohólica sin pasarse. Y el aroma... ♥️

Qué barbaridad. Huele a tremendísimo café, y en boca café excelente también. Barrica muy medida y redonda también. Hasta el cuerpo ligero me parece que le pega más que uno más grueso. Esto está como quiere.
