I'm glad I'm not the only one. Sometimes the jones is strong.
I tried a locally brewed Russian imperial stout from Cigar City Brewing Co. called Marshal Zhukov's Imperial Stout. She is thick and sweet, almost too thick, with the natural bitterness kept in check nicely by the malt. This is heavier than Rasputin by a pretty good stretch. It almost would be a dessert sipping beer if there was such a class. It has heavy coffee and chocolate notes in it's profile.
Yes, the head is that dark and thick. Go ahead, enlarge the pic.
It is only available in the big bottles. 750ml, I think.
