Rasputin by Brouwerij de Molen is a Russian Imperial Stout with commanding strength at 10.4% ABV. This nearly black beer showcases a rich, malty foundation with pronounced roasted character. The nose reveals toffee, black licorice and dark fruit, while the palate delivers layers of chocolate, caramel and plum with a soft, balanced bitterness. The finish is warm and dry, with lingering roasted grain notes.

Brewed since 2004 in the historic Arkduif windmill (built 1697) in Bodegraven, Rasputin is built for cellaring—the label invites enjoyment within 25 years. This is a contemplative beer, where full body and warming alcohol amplify its bold character.
