Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2017)

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.

Wow. Can't believe you were still holding on to this, pops. Thanks so much for coming to see us and Emeryk in the hospital. Love you so much. A fitting brew for the Celebretory afternoon. Cocoa, vanilla, & rich earth.

Fun side-by-side with 2017 breakfast stout. No surprise BA is holding up much better. BS is bitter chocolate, KBS has nice subdued barrel presence

The last of the vintage…I’m assuming this is the last of the “South Dakota” stash. I believe this beer lived in North Dakota (in my work bag), Denver (house & apt) Lubbock (closet) & Midland! Hard to put them “in the cellar” when you constantly move!

Round two making roasted marshmallows and ashtrays there’s just something about a fire pit that just warms you up.

So mellow! Toffee and barrel still very present. Absolutely no strong alcohol burn. Aged amazingly.

Lots of coffee and chocolate with just a little bourbon in the finish. Wonderful!

Drinking well. Not as much chocolate as last time I had this 4 years ago. It's dark like the void my soul will eventually return to. Please continue to enjoy KBS.

The alcohol flavor is a bit too prominent, with subtle coffee taste.

Found it on draft - at Dr. Beer (the best beerbar in Antwerpen). Sweet, full flavour with chocolade and coffee.

Still good but this has fallen off a bit after 5 years. Barrel is much more subtle. Everything has smoothed out but I actually prefer the stronger flavors. Will have to tap my other vintages to compare soon

Aged for 5 years, old and excellent, like my mom who passed away last week. This is one of many tributes to her that I'll be cracking open.
