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.

Bottled 10.27.20 , definitely has aged well. Coffee is still prominent and hasn’t turned. Slight warming of the chest, subtle oak dryness. Huge chocolate. Still a little thin but not so much in comparison to more recent releases. Clearing out the cellar..

#47 (far right): Good aroma of chocolate, but it didn’t follow through on the flavor. It is lighter on the plum than most BA.

Just over 3 years later... still roasty and bitter.. not too much maple sweetness. Full of chocolate though. Delicious!

From the cellar; fudge dominates as there's not much coffee or barrel left; stamped, "Bottled On: 09.24.20."

Just got my driver's license suspension lifted. Couldn't think of a better beer to celebrate with (from what I have on-hand). Cheers! 🍻

Oh boy. A couple years mellowed this beautifully. Definitely my favorite of the KBS spin offs, and (at the risk of heresy) possibly even better than the original. Leans a bit toward desert beer, but I really dig it.

Trying to pull some old ones out. This one bottled in October 2020 and has held up great. Creamy fudge flavor with some maple sweetness on the back end. Not much barrel flavor but that is typical of KBS beers for me.

Fort sur le chocolat, le café et le sirop d’érable sont très discrets, tout comme le bourbon. Au moins ça reste équilibré, l’alcool ne domine pas. Assez peu de corps, arrière goût de cacao Van Houten.

Stout gourmande. Bière de dessert. C’est ce que ça dit, c’est chocolaté et sucré. Ça mériterait un 4.35.

Vertical tasting for the New Year. Flavor is still there more chocolate and subtle on the coffee. But really held up well after 3+ in the cellar

Absolutely ridiculous beer, been aging for a while and drank at room temp. Lots of layers, nothing overpowers and the sweetness is spot on.

Надо сразу сказать, что ни коричный, ни эспрессо версии мне не показались выдающимися. Эта не исключение. На нос хороший брауни и ликерные конфеты, немного кислит, сиропа почти нет, бочка едва ли, из базы любимый табак присутствует. Водянист и прост. Сух.
