Una Russian Imperial Stout de color marrón rojizo muy oscuro, casi negro. Aroma a café torrefacto y chocolate, con notas de caramelo. En boca muestra un cuerpo suave y una compleja mezcla de toffee tostado y sabores a lúpulo, resinosos y cítricos, con un final dulce.
Imperial Russian Stout
Extended ageing before bottling differentiates this style from simply being a strong stout or porter. It makes Ridgeway Imperial Russian Stout considerably more vinous and sharp than an export stout. There is just that little nod towards a lambic beer, with very roast and very bitter flavours. The bitterness mellows over time in the bottle so the style is not intended to be overtly hoppy.
