Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2020)

Stout - Imperial / Double Coffee

This beer taught us that patience truly is a virtue. KBS is a big imperial stout brewed with a massive amount of coffee and chocolate and then bourbon barrel-aged to perfection. Incredibly silky and full-bodied with notes of vanilla, cocoa, roasted coffee and charred oak.

A nice sipper for some ND football. 2020 KBS is chocolate-forward. Smooth and tasty.

I can think of no other beer that is consistently AMAZING like KBS. Maybe the only good thing to come from 2020. Thanks to my friend Justin for passing this to me tonight.

Been a while for this OG... solid mouthfeel and coffee taste, could use a bit more barrel.

Roasty coffee and bourbon most prominent. A little hot but very much drinkable.

Sweet stout. Can’t have too many of these without rehydrating with an IPA.

Kbs has become less and less impressive over the years. Volume too big and quality suffers?? Watery and lacking flavor...boo

Doesn’t seem as good as last year, maybe just imagining things?

Oct 2020 batch. Need to do a side by side with 2019. Seems like it’s missing something... Maybe less coffee to set it apart from the Espresso variant?

Good but not like earlier years. 14-17 seems better. Maybe cellaring a couple years would help. Salute to all veterans. Thank you all. 🇺🇸🍻
