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.

17-3, 5yr 2mo o. Coffee is mellowing, yet at a pleasant level rn. Plenty of complex spices remain. Notes of cocoa, cream, and warm molasses. Aging beautifully.

Straw chug for a chug train call out in a FB group. Go big or go home for an early morning chug on an empty stomach.

Booziness has disappeared completely after 5 years. Not as thick as I remembered. The coffee came through without too much acidity. Aged well.

Bloody hell this has held up sublimely. Bags of coffee, hint of vanilla. Wondering now if I have more stashed away. Cheers for the reminder Richard T. but I may need you to pick some of the current ones up..

Aged quite well. Would not push it much more, though. Carbonation is falling. Still full flavors of coffee, chocolate, and bourbon. Still good bitterness and malt integrity. Sweetness settled, and flavors coalesced.

Vertical 2016-2019 from the cellar. Pretty similar. Older two are more woody, less carbonated. Newer two have more chocolate flavor. All are pretty heavy on coffee & bourbon flavor, though it tastes different depending on the wood/chocolate combination.

After sitting at the bottom of a mini fridge and moving houses, I was honestly shocked that this still tastes amazing. Very smooth but clearly still very boozy!

One of my favorite stouts and after 5 years it’s still there this is just perfect for sipping and relaxing especially after a long start to the week.

Oddly very thin but smooth and drinkable, touch of oxidation. No heat, no chocolate.

5 years of aging made this smooth, sweet, with just the right amount of bourbon notes on finish
