| | Stout beer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Stout is a dark beer made using roasted malts or roast barley. | | | Oatmeal stout has oats added to it during the brewing process; this causes the beer to be even sweeter and smoother than the Milk stout. | | | Coffee stout is the darkest and most bitter type of Imperial stout; and typically brewed with the darkest malt roasts. |

| | Imperial stout - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Imperial stout, also known as "Russian Imperial Stout" or "Imperial Russian Stout," is a variety of ale that was originally brewed in England for export to the court of the Tsar of Russia. | | | Known as the "king of stouts", this beer exhibits enormously powerful malt flavours, hints of dark fruits, and is often quite dry. | | | It is highly hopped and has a very high alcohol content (nine or ten percent is not uncommon) intended to preserve it during long trips and to provide a more bracing drink against cold climates. |

| | Beer: Stout & Porter |
| | Imperial Stout is an extra strong version of stout which was originally brewed by the British to withstand the rigors of export to Russia and the Baltic states. | | | Stouts and Porters are enormously popular among US craft brewers and virtually all brewpubs and regional microbrewers produce one or both as year round brews. | | | In the heyday of Porter in London, during the eighteenth century, the term "Stout" was used to denote the strongest and weightiest beers in a brewers portfolio. |

| | Imperial Russian Stout |
| | In the heyday of porter and stout brewing in London in the 18th century, more than 10 breweries were engaged in exporting dark beer to the Baltic. | | | When it was brewed in London, the beer was matured in those small wooden pins for a year prior to bottling. | | | The best-known brewer of export stout was Thrale’s Anchor Brewery in the parish [district] of Southwark, a mile or two up river from the Courage site. |

| | For some background, "Imperial" originally referred to the Russian Imperial Stout style of beer, which is a highly-hopped, high gravity stout with alcohol typically in the range of 8 to 12 percent by volume. | | | Naturally, the adjective "Imperial" is (rather arbitrarily) now being used to describe a stronger version of a classic style of beer that was not necessarily strong before. | | | Then some innovative American brewers took the "Imperial" characteristics and applied them to the India Pale Ale (IPA) style, creating the Imperial IPA (which is a recognized style category by the Beer Judge Certification Program). |

| | When a brewery offered a stout and a porter, the stout was always the stronger beer (it was originally called a "Stout Porter"). | | | The "milk" name is derived from the use of lactose, or milk sugar, as a sweetener. | | | Comments: A rather broad class of stouts, these can be either fruity and sweet, dry and bitter, or even tinged with Brettanomyces (e.g., Guinness Foreign Extra Stout; this type of beer is best entered as a Specialty or Experimental beer). |
