Mango Magnifico M.

Maybe I shouldn’t have sat on this, but it was not quite as balanced as I’d hoped. Slight mango sweetness with habanero spice that lingers past the finish. Crisp.

KBS Hazelnut (2022) M.

Roasty hazelnut is very forward, with undertones of chocolate and vanilla, followed by a boozy heat on the finish. It’s as advertised.

KBS Cinnamon Vanilla Cocoa M.

As advertised: KBS with hints of cinnamon and vanilla, deep chocolate and coffee notes, good barrel and heat on the finish. Sweeter than the original, but still lovely.

Barrel-Aged Imperial Stout (2020) M.

Near-perfect balance of rich, dark chocolate and barrel. Roasty, boozy and thick with bitter heat on the finish. As smooth as I remember it.

KBS Maple Mackinac Fudge M.

Deep, rich chocolate notes with hints or coffee and vanilla oak and a slightly bitter, bourbon finish. Not going to lie, this is incredible.
