Thirsty Dog Siberian Night

I stopped in to Al’s of Hampden to try a glass of Thirsty Dog Siberian Night, a Russian Imperial Stout. The beer pours a deep black color with almost no head; the only head is a filmy white one. The aroma consists of dark chocolate, toasted malts, and vanilla. The taste is big on toasted malts that dry the dies of the mouth with a dark chocolate bite, also somewhat dry. The finish brings out a little bit of the vanilla and sweetens the experience. The alcohol content is 9.7% ABV. This is a wonderful Russian Imperial Stout that has a good amount of chocolate and toasted malts, all sweetened a bit with a touch of vanilla.
