Saint Petersburg

This is a 7.7% Imperial Russian stout by Thornbridge.

The beer is extremely dark, with almost no light coming through when held to the light.  It has a lovely foaming dark blond head.  The aroma is subtle, with dark chocolate and sweet malts.

This beer has a subtle smokiness, with a good dose of luxurious chocolate flavour.  It's a smooth beer, with a very slight bitterness, and a beautiful warming finish.  Top stuff again from Thornbridge.

5*
