This Russian Imperial Stout, made to be ready after the winter holiday season, is the nightmare of your nightmares, which means it's your friend -- a beautiful, dark, fiendish friend. This one is as black as your worst nightmares, but tantalizes with beautiful notes of roasted coffee, dark cocoa, and mild smoke. There could be no better friend and companion, to nurse your spirits back to par, in the dark and bleak winter days that follow the coming of the New Year. Cheers!!
