Russian Imperial Stout, named after the “Great Bear” constellation Ursa Major. Brewed with some of the finest dark malts, this bold stout has been aged in Woodford Reserve bourbon barrels to further refine its temperament. From the first taste you’ll discover a hint of plum and coconut with traces of vanilla, from the bourbon. The stout is very smooth, with a silky mouthfeel, given its mighty nature. It is a shining light in the Smartmouth family of beers, and a stout that truly reaches for the stars.
