Traditional Russian Imperial Stout made with 7 different malts, it has rich taste and rich smell. The full-bodied, dark and thick drink is aged for a year for the perfect ratio of the hop and the malt. High alcohol percentage, berries and dried fruits with a light caramel-truffle finish. It is a beer to remember. The Franky and Boris beers are limited editions, and are either in a 0,375 l or a 1,5 bottle. Only a few thousand are made. Each bottle has its own number and the year of production written on it, which is important because each year we keep the first 120 beers. We plan to make a special collection in the following years, which will contain the saved bottles.

Bottle. Jet black pour, thin brown head that disappears quickly. Sweet nose and taste with notes of chocolate, malts, roasted earthiness and some booze. Not supercomplex, but definitely well rounded. Medium to heavy body, average carbo, long sweet boozy finish.

Leicht oxidierter Malzbeginn mit milden Noten von Schokolade. Würzig, trocken röstig, geringfügig bitter. Der Hintergrund ist überraschend schwach angesichts des Alkoholgehalts, milde Herbe, Nuancen von roten Beeren. Eher kurzer Abgang. 8/9/11/8/12/8

Tap at Fakin. Damn, was positive I'd had it before but no problem trying it again, hah. Pitch black, lasting, creamy tan head. Creamy aroma, cocoa and raisins followed by plum jam. Smooth taste, creamy but lean, prunes, soft cocoa, some alcohol presence, sweetish, well balanced, lightly roasty in the finish. Not bad at all!
