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?

Geur: koffie, vanille, bourbon, alcohol, moutig, karamel, zoet. Smaak: boozy, bourbon, koffie, donker brood, chocolade, zoet en heel ver bessig/rood fruit. Zacht, beetje stroperig/plakkerig. In finish koffie en een chocoladebitter.

It is espresso as a caffè viennese could be. It remembers me more a coffee flavour in a tiramisù than in a cup. Bourbon barrel was very well used, smooth pleasant decadent dessert brew. It means this brew alone could be a dessert treat

Espresso is absolutely at the forefront here but with balance from notes of chocolate and barrel this baby is as smooth as silk. Watch the abv it is well disguised in this luscious stout.

Hmm... could not taste why this beer is so high rate (4.25)... maybe lack of experience of tasting good stout beers. Anyway this was not for me.

Smells like a coffee shop. There is a lot going on with this beer. Definitely tastes like bitter dark chocolate. Has a strong flavor of charred wood. I really enjoyed it.

Sort med brunt skum. Aroma røsted malt kaffe sjokolade. Smak kaffe røsted malt mørk sjokolade vanilje. Kraftig og smaksrik nesten ingen alkoholsmak, sødme i ettersmaken. Flaske fra Vinmonopolet Jekta

Poh, niks voor mij. Vooral koffie. Bitter. Aan de dunne kant. Bourbon erg ver weg. Mis ook iets zoets.
