KBS

Stout - Imperial / Double Coffee

This beer taught us that patience truly is a virtue. KBS is a big imperial stout brewed with a massive amount of coffee and chocolate and then bourbon barrel-aged to perfection. Incredibly silky and full-bodied with notes of vanilla, cocoa, roasted coffee and charred oak.

The King of Barrel Stouts (KBS). Have some spreadsheet work to get done, so thought that this was a good enough reason to crack and pour my final bottle of Founders. This smacks your mouth around with coffee, bourbon, and chocolate in all the right ways.

Almost has a bite like bourbon. Stronger than the Frangelic KBS. Not as chocolaty, not as hazelnutty, not as creamy.

Not big on stout beers, but this was amazing and COMPLETELY different than the typical beers I drink. I would like to get another one and pair it with a breakfast meal, great excuse for having breakfast at dinner time!

Dubbel genieten, eerst door de keel en daarna de bourbon dampen door de neus…

Smooth, lots of chocolate, and not overly bourbonized from the barrel aging. Definitely doesn't seem like 12%. Huge difference when this beer is on draft vs the bottle.
