Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2018)

Subtle coffee, smooth, lots of vanilla. Lovely stuff!

Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2019)

More coffee and bitterness. Better balance than 2018.

Kentucky Bourbon Stout (KBS) (2021)

Still lovely. Coffee forward.

KBS

Still fabulous. Aging well.

Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2019)

Heavy on the booze. A little too bitter. Less coffee and vanilla than expected. Rich and velvety.

Kentucky Bourbon Stout (KBS) (2021)

Absolutely gorgeous. Subtle it ain't. Lovely.

So very decadently boozy. Sweet and luscious.

2021 tonight to complete a lazy vertical. Lovely rich coffee and booze. The coffee is almost too much. Alas I don't have any 2020 which might be perfect...

Moving in to the 2019. More coffee. Luscious and smooth but a hint of spice to the coffee.

KBS

The joy of a forgotten 2018 bottle. Lovely and smooth booziness. The coffee has faded a little leaving more vanilla and oak. Nice, very nice

A little something whilst I cook an early Thanksgiving dinner. 2018 under way and a 2021 to follow. Older one has more marmite bite and less coffee. Very, very nice.

Canadian Breakfast Stout (CBS)

Just wow. Such lovely stuff.

KBS

Yum, just yum!

Nemesis (2021)

Malted boozy loveliness balanced with a surprising hit of hops. Almost spicy. Yum!

Breakfast Stout

Hello my old friend. Such a wonderful hit of coffee.

Backwoods Bastard

Bloody marvellous! So rich and boozy. Love it!

What alchemy is this?! A pale beer with big hits of vanilla/chocolate and a smattering of coffee!? The vanilla is a little strong but this is lovely stuff.
