Can from the brewery listed as 9.4% ABV now - Russian Imperial Stout. Pours a dark brown colour with little copper highlights. The head is pretty big, creamy on top, bubbly in the middle with a slight cascade effect at first, for a few seconds. The lacing left is sticky, webby, creamy and foamy. Roasted malt nose with molasses and some grassy hops. The hops show in the flavours, but not as strong as expected from the aromas. They do show up in the finish, getting a little stronger, lingering. This adds some decent dryness. The rest is wet, silky, with the roasted malt, hints of chocolate, coffee grains and molasses again. Easy to drink.
