From the sound of it, you most likely are using the wrong tool for the job. You most likely want to use the reflect package directly. There are many good articles online for doing this sort of thing (like this).

Outside of that, I am not sure you will accomplish what you want with this library. However, if struct B is a known type, you can do something like the following:

type B struct {
  C string
  D int
} 

s := structs.New(&A{})
a := s.Field("A")
av := a.Value()
if b, ok := av.(B); ok {
  //do something with b.  Internally, Go is using the reflection package in the type cast
  fmt.Println("B.C = ", b.C)
}
