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?

Better from bottle than taster earlier in Decorah IA. Wonderful aroma. Taste is maltiness, balanced bourbon, pleasant coffee notes, cocoa, alcohol well hidden.

Una stout de manual. Cuerpo medio-alto, espuma abundante y de aspecto marrón. Aroma y sabor chocolateado y a café, ya desde el momento de servir la cerveza el aroma invade los sentidos. 12% abv que pega desde el comienzo. Una delicia para los sentidos.

Great coffee and chocolate flavors. Especially coffee. Should be a required beverage for every breakfast.

Been awhile, given my loss of appreciation of this genre - but very good, subtle barrel that becomes a bit more pronounced as it sits. Still balanced without the barrel overpowering a nice amalgam of flavor(s).

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.
