Product details

A strong, pitch black beer with tan head, resounding with burnt, bitter chocolate character, hops, syrupy malt, and a warming alcohol note. A nice companion on a cold winter night or accompanying chocolate dessert.

Imperial stouts were first brewed in England for export to the royal courts of the Russian Tsars. The Tsars are gone but the beer remains, the "War and Peace" of stouts. This kit yields a pitch black beer with tan head, resounding with burnt, bitter chocolate character, hops, and syrupy malt. A viscous, chewy body finishing with lots of roast grain and a warming alcohol note. A nice companion on a cold winter night or accompanying chocolate dessert.

Due to the high starting gravity of this kit, we recommend pitching multiple packs of yeast or preparing a yeast starter for best results.

Enjoyable Imperial Stout

Satisfied with this stout. I modified the recipe to include dark chocolate, vanilla, hazelnut, and a touch of bourbon in the secondary fermentation (2 months). Friends liked it and turned out well. My only other comment is that the ABV turned out low for an imperial, around 8%, which was surprising given the additions.
