Goose Island's Bourbon County Brand Coffee Stout from 2015 is an imperial stout matured in bourbon barrels and brewed with Los Immortales coffee. It is one of the variants in Goose Island's renowned Bourbon County series, where the brewery experiments with different additions to their classic barrel-aged stout foundation. The coffee addition shapes this beer distinctly. The nose opens with intense coffee, chocolate, and bourbon wood. The palate is led by coffee and chocolate, supported by caramel and dark fruit notes from barrel aging. The finish carries coffee and bourbon character throughout. At 13.4% ABV, this is a thick, viscous stout that integrates its alcohol warmth without harshness. The coffee addition tempered some of the sharper bourbon and wood notes, making this a more approachable variant than the standard expression in certain years.
