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?

This is the opposite of full grown. Chocolate and then coffee. Super smooth. Phenomenal beer and that's what I expected

Early Friday here. I like how the espresso tames down the sweetness.

Coffee flavor is there with chocolate then the bourbon kicks in. Nicely done but again dangerous at 12% ABV. Love this brewery.

Zoals David V. het zo mooi verwoordde: alsof je koffie met een likeurtje drinkt. Heerlijk

Ik ben geen koffiedrinker, maar deze zachte, perfecte mix van stout, koffie, chocola en bourbon is een fantastisch toetje! 😋

Oscura con un dedo de espuma beige con buena retencion, aromas a cafe y chocolate, cremosa y ligeramente acida con un buen amargor final, cuerpo alto con una carbonatacion moderada.

Heavy chocolate and coffee on the nose. Not crazy boozy on the tongue with strong espresso. Smooth creamy aftertaste.
