RUSSIAN IMPERIAL STOUT: Originally brewed to impress Czars, Russian Imperial Stouts needed to be high in alcohol to prevent freezing on the long journey to the Russian courts. Brewed with 14 different malts to create a complex, deceptively drinkable, giant of a beer, Bomber RIS is packaged in 473ml cans making it the most portable of Russian Imperial Stouts. Trip to the old country not necessary.
