Draft poured in a standard pint glasses, a finger of creamy tan head that slowly faded to heavy lacing. Not too much of a smell, probably due to the glass. Dark brown color, pretty much opaque. Taste is creamy chocolate and cherry flavor, only a bit of russian imperial bitterness, really yummy. Medium bodied, very creamy, with light carbonation. Excellent Russian imperial stout that doesn't overpower with bitterness.

L: Poured from a tallboy can to a pint glass. Had a deep, dark brown color and a thick, opaque consistency. There was a quarter inch of foamy, tan-colored, somewhat long-lasting head. Average lacing.
S: A very good aroma of roasted malt, dark chocolate, dark fruit, stone fruit, and coffee.
T: Tasted of a tinge of coffee (a surprisingly subtle ingredient), a good shot of dark chocolate (always a welcome addition), some booze (not overdone, but present), a bit of dark fruit (raisins, especially), and a good amount of stone fruit (cherries, in particular). This is a subtle, focused, and well-formed flavor. Pretty tasty.
F: An average amount of carbonation with a smooth finish. Medium-bodied.
O: A solidly done RIS. Worth a look.
