The Russian Imperial Stout is a very strong variant of the stout originally developed by English brewers in the 18th century to export to the court of Catherine the Great in Russia. This extremely dark and complex beer has intense aromas and flavours of malt, burnt chocolate, dark fruit, fresh earth and vanilla. A portion will be aged and released next year.

The smell is relatively light. Smells a bit like fermenting coffee beans - a bit funky even. Some malt, some basement musk, also some kind of soy sauce like taste or something. Huge on the palate - I would rate it a six out of five if I could on the palate. Alcohol is well hidden. Some coffee taste and whisky barrel bitterness with hops. Some lacing, pitch black with some reddish tinge on foam and beer in light. On tap at brewpub.
