Kentucky brunch brand stout Reserve

When we first released Kentucky Brunch Brand Stout back in early 2012, we knew we believed in the experience it had to offer, but with only 6 people showing up for the original release, we had no idea how well it would be received over the long term. Fast forward a few years and thousands of visitors from around the globe, we were humbled and excited to do something special for the 10 year anniversary of KBBS. So, back in March of 2020, we brewed up a special batch that would be laid to rest in freshly emptied 19 year Elijah Craig barrels. After about 14 months in those casks, we selected and blended the best of what our barrels had to offer, then introduced this blend to a handful of 21 year Elijah Craig barrels for 14 more months. In the end, only a few select barrels were worthy of becoming KBBS Reserve. Decadently loaded with notes of chocolate brownie batter, waves of maple and espresso, and finishing with beautiful bourbon spice, we find it to be both fitting of what our original KBBS represented, while also exploring the outer limits of what a beer experience can be.
