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?

An interesting variation on KBS. Not bad but not as good as the original

Want this to be better. KBS runs thin but this seems even thinner and flavors don’t come together well.

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

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.

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.

Not sure if I’d say it’s a better rendition than the classic. Perhaps slightly stronger in coffee flavor but really just as watery and beany. KBS is really losing it these days.

This was a good beer in my opinion. The coffee/espresso overpowered everything, and did a good job at it. I got a very faint chocolate note as well....not enough to talk about though. Good one overall, but not one I will search out.

Ret skarpt fad, som gør eftersmagen noget bastant. Og lidt vel meget syre fra kaffen. Ikke helt i balance. Men til prisen (6 euro) er det ret hæderligt.

I'm wrestling this beer (good bones but too much coffee) while simultaneously wrestling with my wife's strange fascination with Dawson's Creek (badly filmed, badly mixed, plot holes aplenty). Should've picked one challenge at a time. Shame, really.
