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.

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.

Boom!! 9 years old and still bloody brilliant. The only beer with coffee in it I've ever liked. Wish we could still get Founders in Aus.

Aged 9 years. Sadly my last bottle. The carbonation is almost gone but still the taste is great. Chocolate and burnt coffee with some bourbon, soy sauce and vanilla notes. Surprisingly light boiled with a roasted and smoky bitter finish. Sublime!

So much better than 2016. Much fuller, more cohesive, more chocolate less coffee

Really heavy vanilla notes with some of that bourbon burn on the finish. Basically tastes like the beer geek vanilla shake i had last weekend but better.

My last 2015 kbs - had to add to 12 beers of Christmas - chocolate roast nose, booze is less subdued roasty coffee, more chocolate I think if I left it another year it would turn

Vertical tasting after 2014 bottle. 2015 has more chocolate and coffee, still lots of bourbon, nearly as smooth as 2014. Best before 12/02/2015

Still has a frothy full bodied mouth feel on the front end and a great balance of bourbon on the back end - not much bitterness. This one aged very, very well

Roasted coffee, chocolate fudge center, and a bourbon finish. Doesn't get much better.
