Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2016) 12.4%

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.

Back from the 1pp days and refrigerated the whole time. Still kicking and more like a 3.75 but will keep it a 5

Just saw KBS is celebrating 20 years. It’s the big stout that started my admiration of the style. Cheers to 20 years of hunting all around town for a bottle or two or sending my Dad if release day fell on a workday. Glad they’re easier to get now!

I don't think aging helped this much. Clearly, the coffee is more dominant.

Past it’s prime for sure, no rating. Not as bad as the 2015 but might as well drain pour

Deep flavors with dark, heavy roastiness, but not overbearing. A bit too sweet. Smooth and balanced for this ABV and big flavors.

Might be getting a little long in the tooth. Oxidized cardboard, odd fusal with a slight sour, almost soy sauce . Dry chocolate on the finish. Slight warming, but odd touch of diacytl along with the dry finish. Rated low because it didn't age well.
