    I drank mine last night. Coffee aroma was huge. Much thinner than expected.
    Taste was all over the place. Not smooth. Peruvian Morning put this to shame. I'm glad I only got one bottle of KBS.

    Kinda drank like a barrel-aged Dark Horse Perkulator.

    I managed to get a 4-pack this week. Stevens Point, WI was only alloted 2 cases this year.

    last night i drank a lost abbey deliverance, a kbs, then a bourbon county. in that order. i tasted the least amount of bourbon in the kbs out of the three it was my least favorite almost tasted like a stronger fbs. the deliverance was very good but not worth the price i paid. the bourbon county out-shined all of them IMO.

    my interpretation:

    it's not really that good, but since it's so hyped and everyone says it is, and they charge a lot for it, then who am I to not like it....... BAAAAA!!!!

    Ive tried the '12 with some age on it and it held nicely but just got a shipment of the '13 and cant wait to try! Going to do an '11, '12, and '13 side by side.

    I posted our shop having it in stock 2 weeks ago and WSG had a guy come in yesterday evening and pick up our last 4 4pks. Ya' cruise, ya' lose. Grab it where you can.

    Just did a side by side '12 and '13 and the '13 takes it! Not sure if '12 was cave aged like the '13 or if the freshness made the difference but the chocolate and coffee was more apparent although I got more aged bourbon on the '12.

    Picked up 8 last week......first timer and was not disappointed. Exceeded expectations after it warmed up a bit. Very smooth!

    The markup in one shop by me was north of $14 a bottle.

    I know this isn't exactly timely, but I have worked for Wesco for 6 years and none of our stores have ever gotten KBS (unfortunately) and I would be surprised if that changed any time soon.
