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

I suppose the streak was going to end someday. I have loved every KBS until now. I just don’t get the blueberry combination with the other adjuncts and it just doesn’t work for me.  But at least it’s strong.

Strong blueberry and chocolate but little to no bourbon. It would be decent for a blueberry stout, but for BA, it falls flat.

This rating is strictly personal preference. I am not typically a fan of anything labeled imperial and thought I'd try it. Still not a fan though I did like the blueberry but once it warmed it's "imperialness" just overpowerd the parts I liked.

Blech. Too tart. Doesn't even taste like Blueberry. Should have bought a single. Has zero depth. No vanilla, no coffee, no chocolate. This one stinks. So disappointed. Maybe it will cellar good.

Well if you could mix a fruited sour and a stout this is as about as good as it could get. But the flavor don't naturally blend well. I don't hate it. It's definitely fitting what they're going for but the fruit overpowers much of what makes kbs good.

KBS and blueberry: two great tastes that do not go well together.

Love KBS. Blueberry missed the target. Odd taste/mix. Was very syrupy (blah). Artificial. Didn’t have that pop KBS usually has. Overall not bad. The blueberry you get. The bourbon is discreet. Coffee and malty tastes get drowned out somehow. Tasted thick.

Having this side by side with something as astounding as the Paisley Cave Complex really helped put things in perspective.

In the world of blueberry ba stouts this one finds itself on the lower end when drank next to BL Paisley Cave Complex. Malty nose, mellow blueberry character and and barrel almost absent.

A little blueberry on the nose combines with a bit of vanilla and buttery oak, making this a boozy, chocolate-y blueberry muffin. The blueberry is easily tasted, but appears as a sour flavor instead of sweet, and finishes with some slightly dry chocolate.

A slight blueberry flavor that doesn't seem well balanced with delicious stout flavors.
