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?

Huge coffee aroma and flavor. The coffee bean bitterness hides the bourbon, in a good way. Dry. Finishes with notes of bittersweet chocolate.

Definitely espresso. Reminds me of baking espresso powder smell even. Bit of fire in there still. Not too much overpowering bourbon taste. Really btwn a 4.25 and 4.5

It feels like a start and looks like a stout so you have a stout!! Roasty espresso on a cold damp day hits the spot!

If you like KBS and you like coffee stouts, you HAVE to try this. A perfect marriage of coffee and barrel-aged flavor. Boozy, but no alcohol burn. Thick and creamy. Roasty.
