Hits the style mark, but not for me - the banana/bubblegum Belgian signature is just not for me.

KBS Spicy Chocolate Hastings

Camryns 22nd birthday flights! Well blended flavors, a nice KBS base and a front end spice and nice chocolate finish. Exactly what they say it is. If you don't like a little spice with your bourbon and chocolate, pass this by

KBS Espresso Hastings

Ohhhhh. I can't believe I'm saying this, but this is too bourbon forward for me. Espresso is almost an afterthought. This could be a regular KBS aged a couple of years.....
