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.

Aroma is dark chocolate syrup with hint of mocha. Bubbles and color are very dark. Texture is super thick and heavy like sludge. Tastes like a sweet chocolate black coffee. Metallic taste is hidden somewhere in there. Low bitterness -but some. My favorite

Zooo wat een smaaksensatie! Laurier en koffie voeren de boventoon. De rijping op de bourbon vaten is ook goed te proeven. Heerlijk!

When I was working and living in the tobacco fields of central Kentucky as a 7 year old Sioux brave dreaming of a career in either botany or waste management I always mixed my stout with bourbon even when the hillbillies scoffed and farted in my direction

Aged 2 years. Intense unsweetened chocolate up front with some bourbon that lingers. I don’t taste much coffee. Not in the same league as CBS for smoothness or palate diversity, but still really good for a Friday evening treat.

Hello fall. KBS is like an old friend you haven't seen in years but when you chat with him it's like no time has passed at all.

Staying in Michigan for the nightcap tonight. This new situation where you can buy cases of KBS whenever for less than $100 or about $4 apiece really makes you reevaluate which beers are worth spending $4+ on. Used to be twice the price. Just as nice.
