Originally brewed in London, England, pre-WW 1 for export to St. Petersburg in Russia. A combination of roasted barley, chocolate and black barley gives this beer a rich complex malty flavour.

"Rated at the Longwood Brew Pub, how could it be any fresher than this? Arriving at my table in a lovely, tall glass, this beer had a thin tan head of no more than one finger's depth. The body was seriously dark, and the aroma was a big-time nose treat of roasted/toasted malts. Taste was likewise, but featured a generous dose of burnt coffee and bitter dark chocolate. Nice mouthfeel, not thin like some other stouts, and a very smooth finish.
