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.

Not changing my rating from back in the day. This was a great beer when it was newer. But this is definitely aged for too long (even in the fridge)

Dark sweet cherry and milk to dark chocolate are the main flavors. No coffee or booziness. Definitely time to drink this one! Much longer and I could see some cardboard coming through. None now though.

Last one of these in my cellar. It’s still holding up but flavors are less pronounced. Still has some chocolate notes at the finish.

Out of the 9496 uniques I’ve checked in on here, this particular beer provides the most joy when I scroll through all of the prior check-ins. It’s been a good run. Think I still have a couple left. w/ Stranger Things S4:E4

Wow this really blew us away. I was expecting this to be too old but coffee, chocolate, barrel and not too sweet. Melissa says it was perfect.

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.

Delicious. Beer has thinned out, but the flavors are still there. Nice oak and vanilla with a hint of coffee and chocolate.

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

I seem to have one of this vintage each year since it was released. It's always a treat for me to drink a KBS. So complex, well-balanced, and smooth. It serves as the epitome of its style. Cocoa, coffee, Bourbon. What else could I want from a beer.
