If a Russian Imperial Stout is a big stout brewed for Russia, what is a big stout brewed with hazelnuts imported from Georgia, a country bordering Russia? We maintain that it should be called a Georgian Imperial Stout. So now that's a thing.
This is a sipping beer, with strong notes of chocolate and roasted nuts, all with the viscosity of warm syrup. This is cold beer though, not warm syrup, so it tastes way better. Although we would recommend you let it warm up a bit in the glass before sipping. (Description provided by company)

A smooth RIS
Georgian Imperial is nearly black in my glass. It started with a light brown film on top, but it soon withdrew to a ring. Vanilla, coffee, and chocolate are easily noticeable when I smell my glass. The taste is coffee, chocolate, nuts, cherries, and a little bit of booze at the end. This is a sipping beer that is divine as it warms.
