Commercial Description:
This ink black, deep and dark leviathan of a Russian Imperial Stout will submerge you in an interplay between a rum cream-molasses sweetness and an overwhelmingly intense roasted goodness from the copious use of roasted barley, rolled oats, chocolate, dark caramel, Munich, Victory and pale malts.

Yep, it’s a huge one! Pitch black with a few bubbles around the edge. Massive chocolate and molasses nose, bitter and chalky first sip , quickly turns to roastiness and hints of dry alcohol. Rummy and raisiny in the middle, thick, rich, mouth coating. Addictive.
