Hargreaves Hill RIS Russian Imperial Stout 2024 440ml - *SPECIAL*

Around this time in 2024, everyone who walked in the shop heard all about this beer. "An 11% RIS, that's absolutely banging, 440ml and only $12!!!! Cheaper in a six pack too! Can't beat it! 

"That's great Ryan, I'm pleased for you but I asked you about Chardonnay...." replied one customer, who clearly didn't appreciate the bargain I offered.

A few weeks of Stouty joy pass, and one day I get an order online. 16 tins of RIS. We look everywhere, can't find it, get them to check they delivered enough.... They did....

Turns out I thought they were in 24 packs $150/24= $6.25ex gst. Reality? - 16 packs $150/16= $9.375ex GST. Ouch. Having a beer so good at that price was so enjoyable that I'm going to do it again. 
The first carton of this year's release is at my stupid mistake price. $12 each or $9.60 in any 6
Once it's gone, it's gone. Enjoy!

This year's effort is superb, rich roasty espresso & chocolate, proundly dry, bitter finish. Excellent balance.
