Old Rasputin is a classic Russian Imperial Stout brewed by North Coast Brewing in Northern California since 1995. Deep black in color with a thick, creamy head, it boasts 9% ABV and a bold bitterness of around 75 IBU.

The aroma is dominated by intense notes of roasted malt, dark chocolate, caramel, and subtle fruity undertones - such as plums and cherries - accompanied by a gentle warming alcohol presence. On the palate, it reveals a robust character of caramel and coffee, supported by a richly structured body and a warm, lingering finish.

This beer is known for its full body, balanced bitterness, and refined complexity - an ideal pairing with smoked or aged chocolates and strong blue cheeses.
