Risky Business from vandeStreek is a Russian Imperial Stout that lives up to its name—the thick, syrupy character hides its 13% alcohol with ease. This Utrecht-based brewery, founded by two brothers who enjoy brewing beyond conventional style boundaries, has crafted a stout rich with dark chocolate notes and a full body with subtle carbonation.

The finish is lightly bitter and dry, balancing well against the robust, dark malts. This is a stout that commands respect: the warming alcohol and full character make it a serious, rewarding pour for those who appreciate dark, substantial beers.
