The Duck-Rabbit Rabid Duck Russian Imperial Stout

Brewed by The Duck-Rabbit Craft Brewery
Style: Imperial Stout
Farmville, North Carolina USA

Pours black with a lively tan head. Nice dark fruit aroma. flavor is chocolate malt, toffee, coffee, more fruit. Finishes dry, not much of a hint of the abv. A tad bit too carbonated. An interested RIS.

Bottle at patrick767 gathering. Small fizzy tan head that mostly diiminished, splotchy amount of lacing, opaque, no visible carbonation, and a dark brown-black hue. Nose was malty, burnt, roasty, chocolate and alcohol. Flavor was roasty, chocolate, coffee, malty, and rich tasting. Mouthfeel was slightly tingly. Medium body. Very quaffable, very tasty and definitely worthy of a try. This is an Impy Stout that I would drink again.

Bottle thanks to jrob_21. Pours a dark black hue with a small light-brown head. The aroma is really great; plums, prune, brown sugars and roasted malt. The taste is just what I expected from DR; a amazingly smooth silky body, tons of dark fruits, brown sugar, some dry roasted malts, coffee, and a bitter dark chocolate finish. I guess I am in the minority, but this beer is damn great.

12oz btl. A deep brown black pour with a dark tan head and lace. An aroma of large chocolate maltiness jumps out at you first followed by the presence of abv. Flavor is rich semi sweet chocolate with a dark chocolate kinda bitter. You know the kind it is suppose to taste soo rich and sweet because its chocolate but it has that bitter finish that throws you, but in this case it is a pleasant sort of bitter finish. The palate is solid and thick but it is a little foamy for my tastes. Overall a very nice IS.

Thanks to MuenchenerKindl for the opportunity to sample such a delightful brew 12 oz bottle poured into my Duvel tulip produced a good fingers worth of coco colored head that turns to a nice coating of lace on top of a jet black body Aromas of toasted malts coffee and chocolate light alcohol whiffs every once in awhile Flavors of sweet chocolate and strong roasted coffee bitter in the end Good rich mouthfeel the Duvel tulip did help alleviate some of the obvious over carbonation when the beer was just poured. The mouthfeel was great in the end I’d drink it again but one a sitting is enough. I was very impressed with this brewery I would love to try more of their brews

Bottle. Jet black color with a foamy tan head. Roasted malts aroma with some hints of molasses. Taste was rich, complex and fabulous-roasted malts, coffee, molasses. Fantastic!

This bottled brew from Patrick767 at a rating party poured a head of foamy finely sized dark brown colored bubbles that were long lasting and left behind a opaque no visible carbonation black colored body and a very good lacing. The aroma was malty with a sweet mollasses note. The mouth feel was tingly at the start and at the finish with a biting malty aftertaste. The flavor contained notes of malt hops dark malt and brown malt. Delicious and one I would certainly buy again.

Pours super dark brown/black in color. Thin, brown head on top that fades quickly and leaves only a hint of lace. Smells of booze, and dark fermented grains and fruits, plums. A hint of chocolate in there. Different tasting, but good. Tastes of dark fruits, raisins and plums, with a little smoke. A bit of alcohol in the middle, and some coffee and chocolate on the finish. Thick palate, nice crisp carbonation. A bit bitter and also a bit of an alcohol twinge in there too. Definitely a different take on RIS. I like it
