Russian Imperial Stout was
originally brewed in England during
the 18th century for export to the
court of Catherine II of Russia. The
beer you now hold in your hand
began as our interpretation of a
Russian Imperial Stout. We used
massive amounts of roasted barley
and chocolate malts to obtain the
piercing black color. Delicate usage
of oats and caramel malts combine
to create a rich, lasting foam.
Our Russian Imperial Stout is aged in
freshly emptied whiskey barrels for
up to 24 months. This meticulous
aging imparts a complexity of flavors
that include caramelized coconut,
vanilla and dark chocolate. This
combination of tastes pairs well with
heartier dishes.
