Ivan the Terrible is an Imperial Stout Barrel Aged & Bottle Conditioned by Big Sky Brewery in Missoula, MT. A limited release, I got bottle 1133 of 1152. The label mentions using "English Hops" and "American Malt". The pour is incredible dark with a large, creamy, dark head. The lacing is very good and lasting. The aroma is one of the most notable qualities that delivers a knock-out earthy oak smell that is very malty. The texture is thick and bourbony alcoholic. The bottle says 8.75% but I think that it is way more. Overall, I'd give the beer an 8.5.
Purchased from Worden's market in Missoula, MT for $9.99
