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?

So damn coffee heavy. Smells of freshly roasted beans. Sips sweet and smooth. Drinks full but less heavy than it’s 12% ABV. Admittedly I have a soft spot for coffee stouts and this not only tugs, but tears at my heart strings. My advise, stock up!

Last bottle & it’s time; coffee continues to fade and green peppers are present; chocolate, oak and bourbon on backend. Downgrading to a 4.5. Drink these sooner than later. Happy Thanksgiving y’all!

Coffee is there, but mellowed a bit with age. Chocolate is nice and smooth, mild booze.

Chili and stout tonight. Different year and a solid revisit. The coffee and bourbon were evenly balanced. Neither too loud or outdoing the other. Subtle oak. The booze was pretty smooth. Got the 2021 I'm looking forward to comparing.

Had this a long while. My 2020 stash hidden in the far reaches of the beer fridge. We’ll worth the wait. Perfect dessert.
