History of “Imperial Stout”
Imperial stout, also known as “Russian Imperial Stout” or “Imperial Russian Stout,” is a strong dark beer or stout that was originally brewed by Thrale’s brewery in London, England for export to the court of the Tsar of Russia as “Thrale’s Entire Porter”. It has a high alcohol content (eight to ten percent is common) intended to preserve it during long trips and to provide a more bracing drink against cold climates. The color is very dark, almost always opaque black. Imperial stout exhibits enormously powerful malt flavors, hints of dark fruits, and is often quite rich, resembling a chocolate dessert.

Prost!
