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?

Don't rate many brews with a 5 - per my taste buds, this is a solid 5! Rich coffee flavoring, mild boozyness for 12%.

Coffee and dark roastiness. I’d have to drink one of the previous year’s KBS side-by-side with this to really see the difference, but there’s less bourbon booziness and more coffee.

This was my Christmas beer yesterday while opening presents with the kids. The glass was a present from Julia ❤, who joined us via Facetime.

Me muero toa. Si alguna vez me caso, solo quiero beber esto. Granos de café deliciosos en una stout aterciopelada, con toques suaves de bourbon que no molestan, complementan. Sin dulzor estridente, alcohólica sin pasarse. Y el aroma... ♥️

Qué barbaridad. Huele a tremendísimo café, y en boca café excelente también. Barrica muy medida y redonda también. Hasta el cuerpo ligero me parece que le pega más que uno más grueso. Esto está como quiere.
