Mad BoRIS
Mad BoRIS is an Russian Imperial Stout that won 2nd place in "Milds, Porters and Stouts" in the 2009 National Craftbrewing Festival in Sutton, UK. While not entirely historically accurate (roast barley, crystal and brown sugar would never have been used), I don't think it suffered at all.
