I picked up a fresh 64oz growler of Propeller's new Revolution Russian Imperial Stout, along with two 341ml bottles. This review is the growler version. I've tried the bottle as well. Very close for comparison.
Appearance: Opaque cola coloured. Rich, bubbling two finger head which quickly diminishes, transforming into a light chocolately ring. Slim to no lacing.
Smell: Roasted malt, coffee, bitter chocolate, salted pecans.
Taste: Wow. Stellar. Unsweetened chocolate. Huge after taste of smooth, creamy coffee. Nuts balancing out very nicely with the flavour. You can definitely taste quality in this brew. Malt is dominant, with only a slight hop finish.
Mouthfeel: Complements the taste oh so well. Slick, creamy, gratifying. Cream turning into crisp at the finish. You'll be smacking your lips afterwards because you won't want the taste to leave.
Drinkability: Immensely high. The 8% abv is masked very well by the pronounced malt in this beverage. This has to be my new favourite from Propeller. I might even cry when the winter season ends, seeing how this is presently a winter release.
Propeller Imperial Stout is highly recommended.
