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.

On tap at Ölrepubliken. A more or less black one, topped by a dense beige head of moderate size. The aroma is quite smooth, with oat, roasted malts, coffee, some licorice and alcohol. Some burnt notes. It's very smooth on the palate, full bodied and lightly warming. Roasted malts, some burnt malts, dark chocolate, coffee, dried fruit and a touch of licorice and oat. Lasting malty finish. A bit too mellow this one, but far from bad. 240725
