Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2015)

Stout - Imperial / Double Coffee

What we’ve got here is an imperial stout brewed with a massive amount of coffee and chocolates, then cave-aged in oak bourbon barrels for an entire year to make sure wonderful bourbon undertones come through in the finish. Makes your taste buds squeal with delight.

A little past peak. My fault for sitting on it for 7 years but still flavorful, no carbonation at all.

Yes, drinking a bottle I have been aging since 2015, just to see how it aged. It has aged very well. Very mellow. Nice coffee flavor.

Was hoping to compare the BCBS coffee variant to something similar, and this was the closest barrel-aged coffee stout I had around. Kids, if you’ve got any 7-year-old KBSes hanging around, drink them about 4 years ago. Not even fair to rate it.

I can't give this one a rating because I sat on it way too long. Advice... The best beer is fresh beer. It's ok not to age your beers, or forget about them in my case.

Aged 8 years. Way past its peak, unfortunately. Smooth, but rather oxidized, and with low carbonation. Drain pour. Keeping old rating.
