Old Rasputin Russian Imperial Stout





That's some good stuff. Strong, too- 9% abv. It comes in a four pack and I think that will be quite enough. There was a time when I would not drink anything darker than Miller. I started getting into brown beers a few years back, but shied away from the really dark stuff until about a week ago when I decided to try a Founders Porter. It looks like I'm officially on my way to becoming a beer snob.

Recommend some stouts and porters for me. I live in a small town so I'm kind of limited when it comes to craft beer, but we do have one place in town that has a decent selection.

I drink their "Blue Star" wheat beer, by the keg.
I lived in Fort Bragg for twenty years where the brewery is. My neighbor ran the bottling line, he'd bring home low fills and label askew bottles, especially the Rasputin, because all the people ahead of me in line wanted the other beers first.
