I’m a sucker for the classics. A great Friday night, for me, means turning on an old black and white film and grabbing today’s beautiful Russian Imperial Stout!

The award-winning Black Raven crew made a true classic of a brew. By crafting it purely with 2-Row Barley, Crystal, Chocolate, Carafa, and Roast Malts, they let the dark flavors and thick body do all the talking. No matter what I’m watching while I drink it, I get something new out of every sip.

Sometimes I’ll pair it with a good Jimmy Stewart classic, letting those roasty malts and espresso flavors whisk me away on a dark brew adventure. Or maybe I’m watching The Birds and, like a Hitchcock twist, I stumble into subtle, bittersweet cacao and notes of toasted caramel.

Or, just maybe, I’m watching Marlon Brando set the screen aflame with passion while I embrace the fiery, belly-warming 9.5% ABV.

No matter how I’m enjoying it, it’s a staple of movie night. And it could be for you, too! But you’ll have to act faster than a quick-witted detective realizing it was the jazz lounge songstress all along – we only have a small handful of these classic brews to go around!
