A rich, intense brew with a robust palate, a fruity nose and a warming finish. Very complex.
Hang on; we're seeing what we know about North Coast Old Rasputin Imperial Stout...

One of my top five beers (which is a very exclusive club). Not much to say about this one.. Has rich, dark, deep flavors, definitely not a beer to drink quickly! I take three with me every time I go fly fishing, and I recommend it to anyone who claims to love beer.
Really good beer with all the flavors I expect from a stout. Blows Bell's Expedition out of the water but is not as good as Deschutes The Abyss.
What an amazing imperial stout!! This brew pours up a rich, black body sporting a frothy one-finger thick tan-colored head that dissipates slowly into a tan-colored ring (with very good retention) that leaves incredible lacing on the sides of the glass. Scents of roasted malts, dark chocolates, strong coffee and alcohol. Flavors of the same embody a light syrupy body texture with just a slight tinge of bitter aftertaste (but that is what makes it so good!). As the brew warms, the flavors and scents just intensify! This is a very easy-drinking imperial stout so go slow and enjoy the robustness of this brew. A great brew year-round but especially one to be enjoyed in the wintry months next to a roaring fire!
it has a heavy taste...it was a good dark beer.
Tastes similar to the Widmer Imperial Stout.
