never say die

Grabbed me a four-pack of Old Rasputin Russian Imperial Stout at my local liquor store. Matt and I each had one, and agreed that while it's just as flavorful as your average stout, it ends on a much sharper kick than, e.g., Guinness or Young's Double Chocolate Stout. As this is my first Russian Imperial Stout, I don't know if that's a peculiarity of the beer or of the type. More research is clearly needed.

Ol' Rasputin's good. I have a logo glass.

Also, I'm pretty sure Guinness is a porter.

Also, also, I appear to be pseudo-striptonite myself. Yow.

Hey,
I'm pretty certain Guinness is an Irish stout, Beer Advocate agrees with me

About you research, riad, it's going to be almost impossible for you to get Dark Lord (Only Distro'ed at the brewery in Indiana once a year). The Stone RIS is not distributed in Texas, though I might be able to grab some in Boston, and if I do, I'll save one for you ;)

Your knowledge of beer may be superior, "Sid," but *I* remain Striptonite Jr.
