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?

The espresso has become more roasty and not so much on the bitter side.

コーヒーマシマシのKBS。ビールとして直に飲むのはきつい…バニラアイスがのったパンケーキにかけて食べたい。カフェインが強いようで、夜飲んだら眠れなかった

A bit thin for the style. Not bad, just unbalanced toward mediocre coffee/espresso.
