A Russian Imperial Stout is simply a stout with extra everything! Despite what the name suggests the beer was first brewed in 19th century England for export to the Russian court.
Our interpretation of this style is a brooding beer with a thick body and generous tones of liquorice, coffee and chocolate. A robust and complex beer best enjoyed in moderate amounts.

Almost black with a creamy, beige head. Aroma of dark chocolate, charred grains, ink. Taste is sweet up front with lot going of strong, roasted bitterness going into the finish, accompanied by a mild sourness. Heavy bodied. Good.
