KBS Maple Mackinac Fudge (2020)

Stout - Imperial / Double

Michigan didn't invent old-fashioned fudge, but it was perfected here. We pay tribute to this time-honored tradition with KBS Maple Mackinac Fudge. By amplifying the rich chocolate notes of KBS using Mackinac Fudge coffee, then adding maple syrup and aging it in oak bourbon barrels, we've created a bold new take on our barrel-aged classic - one that could only have originated in Michigan.

A nice blending as it’s slightly sweet with subtle coffee and fudge.

Excellent. Smell like fudge & tastes alot like fudge. That said, it is sweet, very sweet, sweet like it reminds me of Hershey's chocolate syrup (smell and taste). This is more of a desert beer than anything else. Worth trying 100%. Will I buy it again, no

Straight maple fudge on the nose. Palate is good; predominantly sweet with notes of baker’s chocolate, toffee brittle, and a boozy warmth throughout. Pretty balanced, but could use some more body.

Rich, thick pour w/deep brown head. Tastes of chocolatey sweet fudge foremost. Coffee complements in the best possible way, adding some acid & bitterness. Maple is lighter, like an afterthought. Boozy oak & bourbon notes are balanced & it all works well!!

This is smooth and delicious. No hint of being 11%. I’m thankful for that. I’m also thankful for: the sunshine today, my kiddos who helped cook, a nice run, the wings and mac & chz we are about to eat, and the cutie here with me.

Decent and very fudegy but with a lot of KBSs these days it would be nice to have at least a little barrel character coming through. Nice drink. Last night.

Better than the last few iterations of KBS a bit too much coffee to call it balanced but not too shabby.

Ouderwetse koffiesnoepjes. Niet dik genoeg. Erg veel koffie. Drukt de andere mooie smaken weg. Waar is mijn maple. Heel lekkere ijskoffie.

The nose is straight fudge, roasty coffee notes dominate, but overall really solid.

Roasty coffee ☕ and subtle maple 🍁 on the finish. Pairs well with a late sunday breakfast 🥞 🥓

Last night - Second time having this in November, and I’m more impressed than I was the first time (up .1 to 4.2). The coffee and maple rock together amidst the barrel presence and roastiness. It has a better body than I initially gave it credit for. Yum!

Straight outta the beer fridge; bet it develops some more flavors as it warms in my hand. Nice, smooth booziness, chocolate and a hint of woodiness so far...
