KBS - Chocolate Espresso C

Strong chocolate nose. Mildly sweet, dark, rich, thick dark roasty chocolate with coffee at the finish. Boozy throughout. All the flavors are more subtle and subdued. Not much barrel presence. Still tasty.

Sweet Repute C

Sweet, maple, caramel, syrupy with boozy bourbon throughout. Wonderfully balanced and unique. Quite enjoyable. 4.2

4 Giants Tropical Treasure C

Definitely sweet, tropical mango and pineapple. Tangy, slightly creamy…nice.

Citrus Squall C

Hawaii’s Punch, in beer form. ABV is well hidden, but not at all what I was looking for. HP is NOT my thing.

Kbs (2023) C

Dry, deep, dark chocolate and coffee with a boozy barrel finish. A bit drier than I remember—could be a tad sweeter, but gets better as it warms.

French Toast Bastard C

All maple nose. Sweeeeet, syrupy, strong cinnamon maple syrup with a boozy maple finish. Definitely French toast beer. Very nice, but good it’s only 12oz. Dessert sipper for sure.

Bottle Shop Series Highball Drifter C

First hit is sweet orange zest that then blends in with hints of cherry. Plays back and forth between the two on the tongue with faint hints of the barrel at the finish. Delicious.

4 Giants Hazy IPA C

Sweet, juiciness (tropical/citrus) that quickly move to a pretty strong boozy dankness. Nice.

KBS Hazelnut C

Overwhelming hazelnut. Hazelnut, and more hazelnut. Ugh. The worst KBS…I have a headache. From just a taster.

KBS Cinnamon Vanilla Cocoa C

Bourbon cocoa nose. Hits all the notes perfectly—bourbon, vanilla, chocolate, with a slight kiss of cinnamon at the end. Nice.

Velvet Rush C

Barrel coffee nose. First hit is an explosion of chocolate, coffee, creamy vanilla sweetness. It melts into a boozy, bourbon vanilla finish. Delicious. 4.4

French Toast Bastard (2019) C

Amazing maple syrup on the nose, sweet maple vanilla. Oh wow—French toast in beer form. Delicious. 4.3

Panther Cub (2021) C

Sweet vanilla nose. Sweet, strong vanilla maple on the tongue with barrel undertones. Very nice. Founders doesn’t miss...4.3

4 Giants IPA C

Hoppy, malty, then a boozy finish. Very nice.

Marvelroast C

Strong vanilla on the nose. Cocoa and sweet with vanilla finish. Desert in a bottle—but you gotta like vanilla...
