Black Saddle Stout is an imperial stout brewed in the Russian Imperial Stout style but with a Ukrainian bent (many think that Ukraine translated means “end of the world”) – dark, thick, complex, and roasty, with hints of dark fruit and chocolate. This is a beer for those special occasions when you wish to savor a beer, just because it’s a great beer. Black Saddle is a big beer to warm you on a cold winter evening, pair with a great cigar or share with friends on a cool evening by a fire pit. 9.4% ABV, 86 IBUs. Serve at 57-61F in a snifter. Available in stores November 13, 2010.
