KBS Espresso

Stout - Imperial / Double Coffee

Variant of KBS 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?

Good, of course.Espresso notes on the finish. I definitely liked the Mackinaw Island Fudge variant more. I don’t get much bourbon.

Better than the original. The coffee helps cut through the sweetness.

Coffee profile is off the charts, with a bitter, roasted body. Complex Ethiopian espresso hits the pallette, with notes of red berry & wood chip. Smokiness compliments a mild creaminess. Warming only amplifies each element. This is an absolute stormer!!

Very smooth and balanced. Coffee bean and chocolate in the nose, robust, smooth, not too sweet not too dry.
