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.

Shared with the boys at BBT 11/2021. Medium body, med-high carbonation. Loads and loads of malt character. Focused on the dark malts, strong coffee, slightly burnt and ashy. Also strong chocolate, cocoa, light caramel, and toffee. ABV hidden pretty well, it is perceivably strong, but well rounded. Very good.

Bottle. Malty aroma and taste, a lot of coffee, chocolate, bourbin notes, medium to high bitter. Full body, malty coffee bitter finish with warming alcohol notes. Good.

Bottle. Now this is something. You will be sure that there's higher voltage, but you wouldn't guess it that high. Velvet smooth, with pleasant boozy burning. Vanilla and coffee are obvious on tongue, BA on nose. Velvet smooth feel. Bourbon. Wood. Roasty a little bit. Wonderful.
