B.O.R.I.S. The Crusher

B.O.R.I.S. The Crusher Oatmeal Imperial Stout, Hoppin Frog Brewery, Akron, OH
(Imperial Stout, Rated 100)

B.O.R.I.S. stands for Bodacious Oatmeal Russian Imperial Stout. This is an amazingly smooth imperial stout...and yes, at 9.4% abv, it will crush you! I went to a Hoppin Frog beer tasting a few weeks ago at one of my favorite bars, Burnhearts, and all of their beer is excellent. This stout pours very black with a sweet malty aroma and a smooth stout taste. It has lots of chocolate and oatmeal, and has a sweetness that makes you want more.  Would you believe there is a D.O.R.I.S. (D = Double)?
