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?

Chocolate and viscous with coffee, hop bitterness, oak, and alcohol burn somewhat unmelded but tasty. A good beer on a cold day.

It's a coffee stout. I can't say "this is KBS with coffee" or differentiate it from another coffee stout necessarily. It's good, though.

Obviously more espresso flavor and quite a bit more bitter than a fairly bitter stout. I like kbs but this may actually be a slight downgrade.

Happy Birthday dad, I am taking it hard today, because you will never get to see that I realized my OCMD dream that I have had since a child with fond memories of us riding bikes on the boardwalk etc. Miss you dad, cheers!

Really enjoyed it. Very good barrel aged stout. Strong coffee taste, but not getting much chocolate. Nice strong smell

As expected, heavy on the espresso. Bitter chocolate and vanilla as well. And as Brian K. says, “Highly Acclaimed.”

Bottled 20 Oct 2020. Strong espresso coffee flavor leads to mixed finish of bitter coffee, slightly sweet stout and alcohol. Leads to a joyful confusion of whether this is coffee or beer. Nice take on the normal KBS.

Ganska bra, men vanliga kbs är bättre. Och CBS är fortfarande bäst. Ska lagra ett par och se vad som händer.

All the coffee. Nicely balanced between the coffee caffeine which will keep me awake and the alcohol which will help me sleep.

Just slightly boozy. Not a fan of bourbon barrel aged. Holding off on a perfect score. Still amazing in spite of my criticism

Tjemig, de espressobonen vliegen om je oren, zeer prettig omlijst met chocolade, beetje romigheid en een subtiele toef bourbon. Precies goed!!
