The Duck-Rabbit Rabid Duck Russian Imperial Stout

Brewed by The Duck-Rabbit Craft Brewery
Style: Imperial Stout
Farmville, North Carolina USA

Bottle, thanks to ucusty. Black pour with nice burnt caramel colored head. Aroma is chocolate milk and some roasted malt. Flavor is sweet milk chocolate, roast, and maybe some metallic dry-hopping. Finish is strange (nutty?) and the mouthfeel is a little off. Good flavor otherwise.

This brew had a very strong alcohol aroma but went down smooth with nice hints of coffee and chocolate and a nice malty finish.

Bottle courtesy of Tony @ OTH. Pours black, with a mahogany head. Aroma is roasted Taste is roasted malts, filled with alcohol and some dark fruits notes. Light bitter chocolate, beer remains very sweet. Some coffee in the mouthfeel. This is one impressive RIS from a great brewery. The abv will sneak up on you.

Bottle courtesy of wagenvolks. Poured into a snifter. Completely black with a rather small mahogany head that recedes quickly to a meandering swirl of foam. Aromas of chocolate flavored graham crackers, lots of roastiness, some lactic sweetness, and some plum/grape. Burnt coffee flavor with some chocolate and brown sugar sweetness, noticeable alcohol, and a subtle grape cough syrup note. Body and carbonation could stand to be a bit more substantial. Good clean finish with a pleasant warmth from the booze.

Thanks to puzzl for giving me a bottle of this. Dark black inky pour with a fast-fading head. Aroma is roasty and very chocolately. Sweet rich cocoa, roast, licorice and molasses. Flavour is quite unusual. There is all of the usual roasty/chocolatey character, but also an intense chewy earthy roastiness with a light salty/sour quality that I’m not sure I care for. Heavy intense roasty bitterness that clobbers anything else that might be in here. Yeah, this is a miss for me.

Bottle, pours a solid pitch black with a big brown head. aroma is sweet roast malt coffee chocolate with a kick of the alcohol. Flavor is a burst of chocolate, burnt coffee molasses, with a bitter dry end. Very creamy delicious meal. This is very nice

Bottled: and delicious, thanks CollinmothafuckinT! Pours a dark black oil color with a tan head. Smells of coffee and chocolate and tastes of molasses and coffee. Good stout!

Pours a black color with a brown head. Aroma is of roasted malts, coffee, chocolate, dark fruits, and molasses. Flavor is the same with a decent warming on the finish. Pretty impressed with this brew.
