Brewed By:
Nebraska Brewing Company
Self-Defined Style:
American Style Russian Imperial Stout Black as night and every bit Imperial, this RIS was originally launched to tremendous accolades.
Going further, this Stranahan’s Whiskey barrel aged version meshes the rich chocolates, the coffee-like aromatics with the sweet whiskey nose and drying character of the oak.
Slightly behind on the palette are the hops – held in restraint by the wonderfully full mouthfeel and broad flavors brought on by the perfect blend of so many malted barley varieties.
Ready to enjoy upon now and perfect for extended cellaring.
Best With:
As a digestif. Perfect with lush chocolates and rich desserts.
