STORY

Overview: Gamayun Russian Imperial Stout Partial Mash Version is a rich, complex imperial stout brewed with Northwest Pale Ale Brewing Extract, Bewitched Amber Ale Brewing Extract, Chocolate Malt, Honey Malt, 2-Row Malt, Munich Malt, and Safale US-04 yeast. It delivers deep roasted malt flavor, coffee, dark chocolate, caramel notes, creamy body, and a powerful 9.6% finish.

PROFILE

Tasting Notes: Expect a dark black stout with a caramel-colored head, full creamy mouthfeel, roasted malt depth, coffee notes, dark chocolate, caramel sweetness, and enough bitterness to balance the richness. It is smooth, bold, and deceptively strong.

IMPORTANT BREWING NOTE

Partial Mash Note: This recipe uses specialty grains plus 2-Row Malt to build extra malt depth and complexity. Keep the mash water between 155°F and 165°F during the 30-minute steep for best results.

Yeast Note: The dry brewing yeast packets under the lids of the Brewing Extract cans are not used for this recipe. Use the included Safale US-04 yeast instead.

Strong Beer Note: This is a high-gravity imperial stout. It may taste sharp, roasty, or young early on, but extended conditioning helps the malt, roast, bitterness, and alcohol character smooth out.
