The origin of our Russian Imperial Stout is situated in Zaandam. For this we go back to the year 1697. It is in this year that Russian Tsar Peter I in Zaandam lived and worked as a carpenter. To emphasize the Russian-Dutch relationship, we enriched the beer with 'Zaanse Cocoa'.

(bottle, 33cl) Hazy, mahogany colour with a huge beige foamy head. Sweet and yeasty, moderately toasted malty aroma with hints of berries, cacao, nuts and a tinge of flowery hops. Sweet and slightly sour-fruity flavour, full bodied with a mild carbonation. Toasty malty and distinctively fruity-yeasty taste with notes of caramel, chocolate and floral notes; slightly toasty and quite berry-fruity, almost a bit vinous finish. Aromatic stuff, somewhat a “Belgian” interpretation of an Imperial Stout. 24.XII.09

Bottle: Deep ruby amber coloured, big - slowly collapsing - beige head; moderate caramelly-sourish nose with traces of alcohol,roasted malt and mollasses; moderate to solid sweet-bitter flavour, accompanied by a light acidity; robust sweet-bitter-fruity finish with some traces of bitter chocolate in the aftertaste. Not bad, but a bit weak in comparison to the "classical" samples of the style.................

Bottle at T’ Arendsnest, Amsterdam, 07-06-09 Pours a very dark brown with a light beige head. The aroma is light cocoa and a little coffee. There is a touch of dark fruits and some hoppiness showing. Soft in the mouth, alcohol is actually very well hidden and only briefly shows to warm the tongue, tasty beer. A6 A4 F7 P4 Ov14 3.5

Bottled. Rubyish black colour with mediumsized foamy brown head. Aroma is strong roasted malts, some yeast and fruits. Flavour is malts, black sour coffee, slight roasted notes and some mild notes of fruits. A rather sweetish imperial stout, though they have found some roast to put in. A nice brew.
