Terrapin Big Daddy Vlady's Russian Imperial Stout
Just another ho-hum Friday that was picked up by knowing an American craft beer was coming along soon. Big Daddy Vlady’s Russian Imperial Stout by Terrapin Brewing Company.
A Russian imperial stout (RIS), Big Daddy Vlady comes up a bit short for me. Licorice, chocolate, and a touch of roasted malts. I like my RIS to have dark fruits and hints of chocolate. The body was thin too.
Big Daddy Vlady is an average RIS that has a few teaks to be made in order to be to the style that I am looking for. Enjoy!
