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.

罐装日期2020/03/05 饮用日期2024/01/12 在罐装之后瓶中也存放了将近四年的时间,在到手之前的存放状态无法确定,但喝起来的感觉都对,浓郁的香草可可咖啡的味道,当然还有经典波本桶的味道,但后半段香气感觉很弱,跟曾经喝过的几款经典之作(胆小鬼,笑脸,捣碎)还是有差距 接近满分

First American stout from good 'ol Kentucky. . Bittere sjokla, veel bourbon nog aanwezig na 3 - 4 jaar. Sterke koffiesmaak. It ain't bad, no sir.

Coffee is mostly gone, as expected. Still, that unique chalkiness from the blend of barrel, coffee, and roasted malts that's always characterized KBS for me is front and center. Good, though the whole experience is subdued by the age.

Odd. The 2020 remains...simply less good and balanced. That statement was true when fresh and still is 3 years later. Wonder if there was a major change.

Still enjoyable having sat on it for near 4 years, though I think it's thinner than some other bottles I've had

Some Chocolate flavor but mostly very boozy ending. Never been a big fan of Imperials. This brewed in February 2020.

Not much coffee left... some chocolate still... plenty of bourbon in the nose. As good as I expected, but not as good as I hoped for.

Absolutely magnificent. Glad I kept this around. Best dessert I've had all year. Way more chocolate than coffee. Almost too sweet. Not sure I could drink more than one. But then, it's not built for that. Nice, subtle, silky, bourbon afterthought.

It’s stout season! I’m slowly working through my KBS from 2018-21. Finding that these don’t age super well is a disappointment. IMHO, they need 6-12 months to take the edge off, but then they start to degrade at some point. Looking for the magic window.
