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?

Solid, but think I prefer the original. Moderately bitter coffee.

Eigenlijk heel lekker. Veel koffie, bittertjes, maar naast de fudge mist hij net iets

Finding this toward the thin side. I must say that the espresso flavor is nice, just lacks mouthfeel.

2nd time having this, solo this time. Huge espresso notes in this one. Didn't remember it being so coffee intense the first time we had it. Espresso bitterness is really strong, followed with bitter chocolate, roast and a just a hint of bourbon. 4.35.

Has to warm to room temperature to really enjoy it. Unbalanced. Toasty, boozy, minimal barrel(again), and strong coffee notes. Slightly vegatal in the finish. 🍻1️⃣❤️🌎☮️

Coffee really overpowers any bourbon, that is not a good think.

Before this beer, I really thought there were no strong beers, only weak men, but even I think this beer is a little too much.

Pretty much the best beer around right now. Perfect mix of coffee, booze and chocolate. Yumtastic.
