Wikipedia:
Imperial stout

Imperial stout, also known as "Russian Imperial Stout" or "Imperial Russian
Stout," is a strong dark beer or stout that was originally brewed by
Thrale's brewery in London, England for export to the court of the Tsar of
Russia as "Thrale's Entire Porter".[5] It has a high alcohol content (nine
or ten percent is common) intended to preserve it during long trips and to
provide a more bracing drink against cold climates. The colour is very dark,
almost always opaque black. Imperial stout exhibits enormously powerful malt
flavours, hints of dark fruits, and is often quite rich, resembling a
chocolate dessert.


Note the strong alcohol content.  Should get you through any performance. "a
chocolate dessert". . .hmmmn.

There were quite a number of russians that settled at least in Northern 
California waaaaayyy
back when, and quietly blended into the real estate.  One of my 
relatives by marriage
was a first generation US citizen the child of russians that moved in 
around Sacramento.
