This is a Russian Imperial Stout from Bell's Brewery out of Michigan. Comes in at 10.5% ABV, so it seems perfect for a chilly night like tonight! Pours pitch black in our glass...so black it almost has a purple tint. Nice, thick mocha colored head and a roasted malt aroma. This tastes fantastic! Sweet with the roasted malts shining through, with a slight bitterness and full-on coffee and chocolate flavors with a consistency so thick, it's almost like a milkshake! If you like stouts (and James loves them), do yourself a favor and track this one down. We give it a very strong 4 out of 5. James would even go so far as to give it a 4.5.
