Notes from the Brewery (about the XII vintage):Rasputin XII is Here!
For the past few years, barrel-aged Old Rasputin has been released in such limited quantities that it has been available only at the brewery retail shop. However, we have received so many requests for this beer that for the 12th anniversary, NCBC produced enough Old Rasputin XII to put into broader distribution. There’s certainly not a flood of it, but it is available in select areas. Check the distributor in your area to find where to get it.
We guarantee that the Old Rasputin XII will be worth the search. It is amazing stuff. Aging in oak whiskey barrels adds a level of complexity that amplifies the espresso/chocolate notes in the flavor profile and takes this unique beer to new heights.

91 Points "Exceptional" - Beverage Tasting Institute"These folks don't fool around with their beers. Very big, very complex, and downright kick-ass."

"That first sip is pure stout heaven. It's just a flavor explosion. ... This beer is big. This beer is bold. This beer is what all beer should aspire to be. ... It's an amazingly delicious Russian Imperial Stout. This beer has been one of my top 5 Russian Imperials from the first time I ever had it. I've recommended it countless times before, and I have no problems recommending it again right here. Find it. Buy it. Drink it. Make yourself a life long friend like I did"
-Brew Chief
"...The beer pours out with a frothy tan head that would make Starbucks envious. It’s loaded with chocolate and coffee aromas, some roasty notes and bready yeast. It’s a rich mouthful, sweet, even luscious, but nicely balanced by the hops..."
