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.

LC. Coffee had faded, carb thin. Still great sweet bourbon but past prime.

Nose is minimal. Surprising heat on the front palate, with nice cocoa and slight hints of remaining coffee. Most bourbon flavor is gone but there’s a slight smokiness on the finish. I think 2-3 years is the max I would do on this in the future.

Clearing out the cellar. Still has a little life left in it, but not much.

Well past it's prime, but there's still enough left to make it drinkable.

Imperial Black Friday (IBF): smooth with a thin body. Coffee flavor has blended with the rest of the beer.

In lieu of “cleaning out the cellar”, I drank this. Not rating it though because Founders sucks.

Holy pounds of coffee Batman! I can’t rate this. It wouldn’t be fair. It was a tad off, pretty bitter, and hot! Still drinkable. Wish I had it back in the day so I could compare.

Ok, six years may have been a little long to wait. Back of the shelf, for sure. It still has a lot of flavor, but it's a bit flat.

Excellente, mais par rapport à la 2016 je dirais que le goût de bourbon et chocolat était un brin moins prononcé. Même note quand même, solide

Clearly I need to thin out the cellar more often. Not worth waiting for the vertical (and yes, I know better). Flat cola, chocolate covered raisins. Oxidation took over
