A big beer with a bold cause, Putin’s Paper Tiger is our Anti-Kremlin Imperial Stout brewed to support Ukrainians defending their homeland.

Proceeds from this beer will go directly to Ukrainian Defense, so pickup some bombers while you can and help us fight for a good cause with a great beer!

Dark and viscous from a 3 hour long boil, this stout boasts strong flavors of coffee, dark chocolate, and dark fruits. After being heavily hopped to balance out dark roasted malts, this beaut was aged in fresh cabernet barrels to add complexity, amplify blackcurrant and other dark fruits aromas, and offer just a hint of tartness to further tame the dark toasty flavors of this beast.
