This Russian Imperial Stout is dedicated to Georgy Zhukov, arguably one of the finest generals of World War II. Huge in body with strong flavors of espresso, chocolate and molasses, this unique iteration of Zhukov’s adds roasted hazelnuts and vanilla to impart even more complexity and depth of flavor to this massive, jet-black stout. In the immortal words of Marshal Zhukov himself, “Есть вещи в России, которые не являются, как они кажутся.”

Aus der Flasche im 2019-03 getrunken. Ein klassisches Russian IStout mit einen sehr kompackten Körper. Überraschend wenig Süße, viel bitter Schokolade und leichter Haselnuss nach Hinten im Abgang. Eine echt fettes Teil was man nur langsam löffeln kann. Ein Spitzenstout!

Flaska från Beergium. Drucken med Vignale. Riktigt maffig IS åt det lite sötare hållet. Stor kropp, len och mjuk. Sötlakrits, fudge, Choklad, nutella, vanilj och hasselnötter. Smarrig.

A deep dark stout with a thin dark brown head. In aroma, sweet fruity chocolate malt with light vanilla, light powdery character, alcohol warmth, light cinnamon, pleasant. In mouth, a nice sweet fruity chocolate malt with light nutty notes, light licorice, alcohol warmth, very nice and rich. On tap at total wine, on Dale Mabry.

15 December 2018. Black Beer Fest, Ieper. Cheers to Anke, Erwin & Ama Deke! Cloudy jet black; quickly thinning & completely disappearing beige head. Intense aroma of raisin, plum & red grape, bordering on port & sherry, milk chocolate, hazelnut paste, vanilla, peanut & chestnut, mocha, custard, cookie dough. Taste is medium malty sweet, very apparent vanilla cream & custard, lots of nuttiness too, peanut & hazelnut paste; medium roasted bitterness balances fondant & mocha, roasted nuts too, woody & fruity sour touch of blackcurrant, almost port- or red wine-like. Dryish, earthy hoppy finish, lingering wood, vanilla, fondant, warming port-like alcohol - am I getting some tannins? Full body, oily texture, soft carbonation. Rich, balanced, nowhere over the top, very 'luxurious'!

TJ shared this with the group. The hazelnut and vanilla is really smooth in the flavor. Great body great mouhfeel, not overly sweet. It shows a little bit of dark chocolate bitterness for balance. Wonderful imperial stout. About 5 oz. was the perfect amount.
