Beer description
Russian Imperial Stouts, first brewed in England for Emperor Peter the Great of Russia, are higher in alcohol than traditional English Stouts. The best examples are full bodied, rich, and complex, and will often have flavors and aromas of dried fruit, coffee, and dark chocolate. Often dry, flavors of higher alcohol can be apparent. Hop character can vary from none, to balanced or aggressive. This version is flavored with Maple Syrup, Vanilla, and a touch of Ceylon Cinnamon.
