This beer taught us that patience truly is a virtue. KBS is a big imperial stout brewed with a massive amount of coffee and chocolate and then bourbon barrel-aged to perfection. Incredibly silky and full-bodied with notes of vanilla, cocoa, roasted coffee and charred oak.

12 oz bottle received as a birthday gift from my wife. The pour is opaque black, with a ½ inch tan khaki head. The aroma is roast, sweet toffee malt, smoke and a big bourbon presence. The taste is big roast, sweet toffee malt, black licorice, soy maybe and a blast of the wood and bourbon booze. The palate is heavier bodied, soft carbonation and a big boozy lingering roast sweet wood and Bourbon finish. This beer is really well made, hits exactly what they were doing, though not my favorite style.
