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.

Pitch black pour with a hint of a tan head. Hints of coffee on the nose. The coffee is very forward in this vintage beer. The chocolate is more on the back. Amazing how it became so coffee forward over time. Thick body. Amazing.

Coffee still surprisingly present. Chocolate and booze follow. Impressed at how this is still drinking

2017 release. This beer has aged well. Aroma of chocolate and coffee is still pronounced.

Very boozy aroma. Ok, but it did not hold up as well as the 2017 BCBS.

Another one for the ages. Pleasant aromas of chocolate and bourbon, pours with little head. Velvety smooth mouthfeel, notes of coffee, dark chocolate, a strong bourbon booze. Finishes with molasses sweetness and a coffee roast.

A bit more coffee notes than the 2016, but still a fine stout.
