damn it. be careful with this one. mine produced an absolute geyser upon opening. a lot of beer lost. as for what was left, a decent, sweetened tripel.

the spiciness is subtle, which is good. definitely not my favorite KBS, but it’s nice to try once.

Wake Up World Wide Stout (2022)
it’s intense. but at 15+%, it manages to not be too hot, too boozy, or too sweet. no small task. the flavors from both the stout and the coffee are good and well balanced. definitely not something i’d drink regularly, but probably good once in a while.

Canadian Breakfast Stout (CBS) (2019)
pretty good balance at this point, and the flavors are still good. i was never as big a fan of this one as some, but this is pretty good.

only a bit hot, and not at all boozy. notable for a 16.6% IPA. a huge, over-the-top beer, but methinks that’s kinda the idea. overall, it’s actually quite enjoyable. dangerous.

basically a nutella stout. not bad, for sure, but definitely an adjunct-forward dessert beer.

i pretty much knew this wasn’t going to be my thing, but had to try one.

ages well, they say. i suppose so. still good, for sure. more of a sweet barleywine than an IPA after 2 years, but a really nice beer.

Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2019)
this one’s not great. the flavor’s just a bit off compared to some of the other vintages i’ve been dipping into.

Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2018)
i think i enjoyed this one a bit more than the vintages i had the other day. not awesome, but not too boozy. i think these are better cold.

Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2020)
‘16 (feb) and a ‘20 (sept). i think this is a beer that doesn’t age well. maybe a bit too much chocolate for my taste fresh, but if allowed to drop off, what’s left is not great, boozy more than anything. more notable in the ‘16 here. good, but just that.

massive, bitter, and a bit boozy. good for sure, but i don’t know if i’d enjoy this regularly.

okay, dessert beers may have a new flagship. this is ridiculous. all maple and vanilla. even the barrel takes a backseat. the “robust porter” is completely buried. flavors are quite good, but this is absolutely a dessert cocktail, not a porter at all.

Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) (2020)
always just a bit heavy on the chocolate for me, but so well done. a true classic.
