| RUSSIAN IMPERIAL STOUT SKU: AC-HG-RIS Price: $56.49 |
So named because of its popularity in the Russian Czarist empire, few beers have a more potent flavor and alcohol level. Our Imperial Stout requires a lengthy aging time, and patience is rewarded by remarkable smoothness; however, if sampled early, its alcohol strength is warming and sharp. It is a medium dry style and is aggressively hopped to maintain a balance with the high malt content, yielding a very malty beer when properly aged - 9 months to 1 year. Black patent malt provides a pronounced roasted or charcoal flavor and smoky aromatics. English hops lend further complexity to the palate.
Don't be alarmed by the high bittering rate, when this is adaquately aged, it will be extremely malty. AND if you don't keep a 12 pack around for 4-5 years, you will never know just how good beer can be.
