This long-time favorite brewers’ choice beer was created to hop us challenge expectations and keep us true. We now expose it to you.
Using roasted barley, chocolate malt, and Midnight Wheat (tm), KGB has a color that is as dark as a torrid past, a body as full as a well kept dossier, and a taste a complex as a conspiracy theory.

Bottle 35,5 cl. Courtesy of Doodler. Pours black with a reddish hue and a beige head. Intense coffeeish roast dominates the nose. Medium body, very straight roastiness, coffee and bitter dark chocolate. Malt bitter finish. A very straight and well made Imperial Stout with no barrel aging or goofy additions. 030412
