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.

Given what this is, it’s good. This style is not my cup of beer.

Founder’s Advent Calendar Day 3. Always tasty. It’s interesting that this batch is less thin they the ones from earlier in 2020.

Apparently had not checked this before. Outstanding chocolate espresso without being too sweet.

Best beer I've ever had. Nice chocolate taste and hints of bourbon, but not overpowering.

Best by date of 2017, not sure what year that makes this. Still tasting good. Clearing out the cellar.

Not a super strong taste. But is solid and alcoholic, so I’m happy!

Haven't had this in awhile, so glad to have enjoyed again. The forward aromas are bourbon and coffee. But it's the taste, a delightful blend of chocolate, coffee and bourbon flavors that set this apart. Amazing stout. Founders does it again!

It’s a fairly sweet stout for what it is. It has a black coffee taste mixed with chocolate and a little bourbon. Not overly sweet but just enough to tame the bitterness. For a high ABV it doesn’t have a heavy alcohol taste to it.
