Inspired by ancient recipes,Russian Imperial Stout has absorbed the atmosphere of the 19th century. The beer has an intense, rich flavor thanks to a phenomenal combination of ingredients and an outstanding complex aroma that comes from the use of roasted and caramel malts in the recipe.

440 ml bottle. Opaque black with a small creamy beige head. Vinous prune-like malt nose. Flavor is of roasted malts, prunes, soy sauce and dark dried fruits. Noticeable alcohol burn. This is a slow, savory sipper. Dark and intense, though a bit rough around the edges.

Hmmm it’s an impy stout, it’s roasted, it’s lightly malt bitter. It’s also super watery, most watery impy stout ever? Yeah, best way to describe it is that its what an impy stout would taste like if Baltika made it... hey.

I think it appeals to the russian palate first and foremost but its a decent brew.
WTF?

Bottle. Pours dark brown with slight reddish tint, spongy beige head, caramel mocha aroma, low carbonation, mocha taste with alcohol undertones, longish finish with little bitter coffee aftertaste. Not a bad effort at all.
