Russian Imperial Stout

from Brews Brothers · host Closer and the Crouch

In this episode, we explore the much fabled (and very alcoholic), Russian Imperial Stout. A favoured beverage of the Russian monarchy, this beer is described by Vladimir Lenin ("that Lenin") as the "Bourgeoisie Tipple". We explore how a chance trip by Peter the Great to England when at war with the Ottoman Empire led to a whole new style of beer. We further explore its journey through the ages and it's subsequent death by being tipped out in the streets of St Petersburg. Finally, we discuss its revival due to the American craft beer revolution. We also drink and discuss the following beers: •Dainton Darklord Russian Imperial Stout •Mornington Penninsula Russian Imperial Stout (2020 vintage) •Stockade Old Money Barrell-Aged Russian Imperial Stout
