With hints of glasnost and peristroika in every sip.

It's a really solid imperial stout. Avery always puts out solid beers.

A good imperial stout! A thick, Carmel head that dissipates, dark chocolate and malts, finishing with a bit if a boozy bite. Mmm, great sipper on a cold night !

Not too malty and just the right amount of hops. A couple sips could notice a bit booziness but it's strong so I expected it.

Rich, dark, complex, strong. High ABV is not immediately noticeable due to a good sweetness. Solid notes of chocolate and toffee. This is really good. Definitely a sipping beer.

Dark brown body w/ khaki head & dark chocolate, coffee & roasted malt aromas. Flavors follow nose. Deliciously rich & full-bodied.

Lower sweetness than most Russian imperials. Rich and bold but with a appropriate bitterness. Very complex and cohesive with a nose that differs from the taste. Smooth and sexy
