Imperial Stout (2014)

Stout - Russian Imperial

Brewed with ten varieties of malted barley, this stout is smooth as silk, yet complex and rich in body. Serve this guy at cellar temperature. Put another log on the fire, sit back and enjoy the friendship of this ultimate winter warmer.

What?? How?? Is this for real?? Wish I could do a side by side of a current blend. But apparently this is a 10 year old beer!!! Lost all boozeiness. Fairly flat. Very nice. Hard to appreciate how aged it is.

This one aged VERY well! Layers and layers of charred oak smoke and espresso with a leathery texture. Very mouth coating, as to be expected. Phenomenal complexity and very satisfying!

2022 Santa Beers #10: the nose! Like I shoved a piece of milk chocolate up my nostril. Big roasty chocolate profile with slightly bitter chocolate linger. At 8 yrs a solid stout with a phenomenal nose.

"Those oldies but goodies reminds me of you 'Those brews' of the past bring back memories of you" Still roasty, malty vintage notes, definitely a "tired" beer with very little carbonation left. I promised to drink fresh if it ever comes back

Still has a great roasty dark malty profile with less oxidation than I was expecting. A blessing and a curse to cellaring beers in early 2010’s.
