Imperial Stouts were originally brewed in the early 19th century for export from Britain to the imperial court of Russia’s Catherine the Great.
The high alcoholic content prevented the beer from freezing in transport in the Baltic Sea.
Our Imperial Stout has a rich, malty sweetness, notes of dried fruits & a robust full body. This brew will improve and develop complexity over time and has an intense flavour which is complex and distinctive.

Bottle. Black beer with a strong light brown head. The aroma is gently roasted, and the flavour is deeply bitter with a fortified and roasted flavour. Overall a nice strong stout. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
