KBS Blueberry

Stout - Imperial / Double Coffee

It’s time to celebrate two decades of barrel-aging imperial stouts with KBS Blueberry. In honor of the 20th anniversary of KBS, we’ve given this legendary beer a dose of Michigan blueberries. The alluring aroma of dessert brings you in, while layers of vanilla, coffee, chocolate, oak and bourbon barrel notes become more profound with every sip. A sweet and sophisticated tribute to a world-renowned beer

Tart blueberry juice overpowers the rest. So thin too.

I haven’t had a KBS in a long time. I like this. It’s KBS but with tart blueberries. I don’t have to spell it out for you.

Much more tart than I expected. We’re the blueberries still green?

Good, but the blueberry takes over. Little more coffee and chocolate as it warms

Espresso, fudge, cinnamon/espresso & hazelnut are far better than this. Good just not great.

Tart chocolate covered berry. Little barrel but the base stout is delish. This may become better with time. 3.85

Okay beer — a bit too much coffee flavor for me — also, missed the blueberry flavor, as advertised…

Just unrefined barrel all around with an off putting backlash of blueberries kbs has always been harsh compared to bcbs and likes but this is over the top… blue skys blue berry’s

It's Syrupy (and not in a good way). Yes, blueberry is there, but I feel that it's a bit artificial. I can't taste any of the barrel, so I'm not really sure where the barrel aged profile is coming from.

Decent. Not my favorite. Coffee on the nose, but the blueberries come through in the flavor. The barreling definitely works for me but overall just a so-so offering.

Worth a shot. A little too much Blueberry. It's got a tart undertone from the blueberry and could benefit from more vanilla. Give it a few years of aging and I bet this will be 👌

So back in 2018 (at least right around that time) I had a taproom only blueberry cobbler stout at the Grand Rapids location. To this day, best beer of my life. This is not that. It’s a great KBS and the blueberry tartness cuts the malt of the KBS.
