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?

Smooth, heavy/deep coffee char. I don't drink coffee or even espresso for that, but from what I read it is supposed to be this so BGTD

Aloha State Beer

This aged well, purchased 1/23/2020, bottled 11/15/2019! Some rust spots on the cap. Roasty, slick, chocolate, coffee notes but subdued, bitter, deliciously thick and creamy

The🍺is a solid variant of KBS that I’ve had before. The 🎥 is “An American Werewolf in London.” It’s my 3rd entry for the 1981 category of HoopTober. This has been on my radar to watch for quite some time now, so I’m finally going to watch it tonight.

Thick, beige head, with black appearance, and minimal lacing. Nose- dark bread crust, coffee, cocoa, and a touch of bourbon. Similar flavor, with acrid bitterness and sweetness. Heavy body. Velvety mouthfeel. Mostly-dry finish. RJT

More zoom tasting. Super roasty/coffee. After the last KSB, I want to rate it slightly lower. I get less flavor and more syrup-y ness in comparison.

Thought it would have more body. Light for 12% not getting the coffee.
