Common descriptors are
This Russian Imperial Stout is dedicated to Georgy Zhukov, arguably one of the finest generals of World War II. Specifically, it is dedicated to the push by Zhukov’s 1st Belorussian Front of the Red Army through the German-occupied territory of East Prussia in early 1945, setting the stage for the Red Army’s final maneuver into Berlin to end the war. After extensive aging in bourbon barrels, fresh roasted coffee beans along with vanilla and cacao nibs were added to this juggernaut of an imperial stout.
