Big Eddy Russian Imperial Stout

12 oz single from Hop City, Atlanta, GA, USA.
Pour is a nice looking one, with all the requisite attributes for the style, plus some really nice alcohol legs. Head and lace are not amazing, but solid.
Nose is pretty strong, but mainly in alcohol and little else. Usually that’s not a good sign but this particular aroma sits OK with me.
Very light in the mouth which adds to the drinkability. The beer is a collection of maltiness wrapped inside more alcohol. Obviously some roastiness but very little harsh bitterness. There are a few notes of various chocolates (both dark & light), and the beer comes together rather well.
Quite an easy drinker and light in the mouthfeel, but the beer does give a very significant alcohol taste and delivery.k
