Dec 24th, Russian Imperial Stout

I was excited about this one! Old Rasputin Russian Imperial Stout from North Coast Brewing Company, Fort Bragg, California. 9% alc/vol. A little to strong for my taste. A 4 out of 5.

The label says:
Brewed in the tradition of the 18th century English brewers who supplied the Russian court of Catherine the Great, Old Rasputin develops a cult following wherever it goes. It’s a rich, intense brew with big, complex flavors & a warming finish.
