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?

It’s...fine? I just really don’t think Founders does adjuncts well in KBS.

Ervaring leert bij de gewone KBS dat er elke vintage toch kleine nuances zijn. Altijd net wat anders. Deze dus de '20 versie, de eerste,' 19 versie, nooit gehad dus kan hier geen oordeel over verschillen vellen.

Un tout bon imperial stout café, qui plus est, barrel aged. Une tuerie.

Bottled 11.14.19 , still drinking pretty smooth. Barrel character is apparent and quickly dominated the palate. Medium body, espresso is there but has died out a bit, bakers chocolate bitterness that finished dry to a point. Worse with age?

Coffee is bitter and a bit to dominant. Needs more stout and bourbon character.

Bottled date 23.04.2020. It's like basic KBS but with some milk and hazelnut notes. I would say that most noticeable is chocolate, coffee is somewhere in the back. But that doesn't change a fact that it's good beer.
