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.......much.......COFFEE! Unfortunately it overtakes alot of the barrel. A great beer for sure though.

I love stout night and love this beer the second time around. Got more barrel aging this time. Still tons of coffee.

This was very good aged stout. The espresso is so up front it’s insane. I was hoping of a little more chocolate but it’s still there a little bit in the aftertaste. As soon as I smell the aroma I feel as if I’m drinking a cold brew.

Deep rich coffee with sweet barrel notes. I think this year's may be more robust than last year's.

Oh my my, they killed it. The coffee isn’t overwhelming, it’s rich, flavorful, and dangerous.

Delicious. Not just “another coffee stout” because there was a full depth to the flavors. Coffee (of course), chocolate, kind of woodsy, and very smooth. I could knock back several of these before I realize it’s a problem

Zalige versie van mijn favoriete bier. Sterke koffiegeur en een smaak die mooi overloopt van choco naar koffie naar bourbon.

Nom nom. Just cool enough for a fire. One of my faves with a little caffeine boost. Cheers!

So I’m two beers and three cocktails in, but this is delightful. Imagine you’re sipping a 12oz shot of a mild espresso . Forget the booze and beer, this is just a warm coffee by a campfire. KBS does it again.
