Aged for over 12 months, aromas of sweet bourbon, vanilla and oak combine with liquorice, rich coffee and chocolate covered raisins from the base stout.
Smooth and silky, K.I.S.S brings together a complex fusion of bourbon, oak and classic imperial stout character for a satisfying experience.

Bomber gold wax job thanks to my bro. The aroma is sweet, sticky, oily, unctuous, rich roasted malt, vanilla fudge, rocky road, toasted coconut, jammy, toffee crisp, minty, after eights, tunnocks teacakes and jammy wagon wheel. The taste is slick, oily, sappy, chewy, toothy, bitter - sweet, umami, rich roasted malt, charry, plenty of dark chocolate, loads of bourbon, bourbon soaked oak, unctuous, nutty, praline, toffee crisp, fruit cake, charred oak, light tannin, dull vanilla and mellow alcohol warmth with a slick, oily mouth feel. Fulsome body, fine but lifting carbonation and oily mouth feel. Tasty stuff. I really like the fact that this isn't too sweet at all.

Fles gedeeld door Keukeman. Zwart bier met weinig schuim. Aroma van bourbon en iets van salmiak / zoethout. In de smaak komt gebrande mout en koffie naar boven samen met de bourbon en drop. Nasmaak is dropachtig en plakkerig aan de lippen.

Fles gedeeld door Keukeman, geprobeerd met LiekevdV. Het is een diep donkerbruin tot zwart bier met een dun schuim. Het heeft een zoethout en bourbon achtige geur. De smaak is zoet, gebrande mout, koffie, bourbon en zoethout.
