With a new upgraded license, O’Fallon Brewery has begun the process of brewing some “bigger” beers. The first beer from this license upgrade is a Russian Imperial Stout.

According to O’Fallon Head Brewer, Brian Owens, this beer is 10% ABV with 68 IBUs. Apparently it was dry hopped with a pounds of Cascade hops per barrel and finished with a bit of blackstrap molasses.

Well, this beer is now in kegs and it’s being distributed to local restaurants and bars.  Which have bought it?  Here’s the list from Derek Bean:

• Delmar Restaurant & Lounge
• The Good Pie
• International Tap House
• Riddle’s Penultimate Cafe & Wine Bar
• Pi – Central West End

Now, just because they’ve bought it doesn’t mean it’s currently on tap. Call and check before heading out to try this new beer.
