Tasting my Russian Imperial Stout 2019 - Best Beer to Date!
Channel: TheApartmentBrewer
Date: 2019-12-07

In this video I taste the Russian Imperial Stout we brewed all the way back in May! Its been aging in secondary for many months and this led to what is easily the best beer I've ever made. It absolutely blows my last RIS out of the water and is a pleasure to drink.
