Courage: Imperial Russian Stout. This stout is pretty dang tasty. The brewery only makes it once a year, and I have had this fella aging for quite some time now. It was bottled in May of ’11 so it has had a nice chunk of time to age and mellow. The flavor is smooth, espresso like, with a hint of dark chocolate. You can feel a slight tingle from the 10% ABV. It was originally brewed in 1795 for Catherine the great, the Czaress (is that a word) that she was. If you can find it (I got mine at Specs) I would highly recommend it. Well worth the money.
