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?

Quality! Wish I’d have got a few more bottles of this at the time. Lots of coffee and chocolate, such an easy drinker for the ABV, cracking! 🍫☕️🍻

Huge KBS nose is unmistakable; boozy, espresso tasty but both of us prefer the more balanced KBS version.

Pure decadence. Strong espresso notes with the requisite chocolate flavors. Not as boozy as I thought it would be, but this is a heavy hitter for sure.

Can definitely taste the espresso. Maybe slightly more chocolate and more bitter than the regular version; outstanding.

Not sure on the merits of starting one's day with an espresso stout but it's definitely a fine way to end one! Snappy coffee oomph from the consistently satisfying Founders. (Also, I can't seem to take a picture near a campfire to save my life 🤪)

Definitely suggested as breakfast, of course as well as regular one. Don’t feel much difference but what I feel is that this sample has more coffee bitterness, I guess from here comes the name and I think this one is a bit more watery
