Surly Five Sour and Surly Darkness Russian Imperial Stout

I got my hands on some Surly Five Sour and Surly Darkness Russian Imperial Stout and wanted to post some pictures. The RIS was one of the richest beers I have ever tasted. Massive waves of raisins, prunes, dark spices, hints of many other flavors. Very complex taste and every sip gave hints of different tastes. I still have one bottle of RIS I have been saving, and I haven't tasted the Sour yet!
