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.

It's always great, but like a fine wine, it gets better with age. This was amazing!

This is my last bottle of the older vintages of KBS in my collection, and 2015 was a great vintage. So complex, well-balanced, and smooth. It serves as the epitome of its style. Cocoa, coffee, and Bourbon. What else could I want from a beer.

The alcohol burn is strong up front on this. Cannot tell if this degraded over time because 2014 was better.

Split. Flat but otherwise held up really well. A Michigan beer to have while watching a Michigan band that we first saw in 2015. #fullcircle

Aged 8 years... Aging a BBA longer than 3 years has never really paid off. This was still good on the pallet but not great. Coffee, some sweet, not much barrel.

Clearing out some dark stock. Think I stashed a 7 year vertical of this. (before it became a year around offering) Time to clear it out :)

For an 8-year old beer, it’s not bad.

This far out, the bottles are hit and miss.. this one is mediocre at best. This one still has chocolate, but the coffee is gone, and the barrel that remains is muddled. Might manage it all, might pour...

Found this “in the back”. Strong but shockingly smooth and only a little bitter.
