Gary,
I have reserved a very small portion of the stout for the licensed trade. I hope to convince Volo and Smokeless to stock a case. Stephen Beaumont has indicated that he is interested for beerbistro as well. That would probably be the end of it though.
For those who are interested in what style I've chosen to emulate, well let's just say Courage Imperial Russian Stout and be done with it. It will be 9% abv, with a hopping rate that would yield 80 IBU. Hops will be U.K. Challenger ( what we use in the Corporal) and will be added in two additions instead of the customary one. Hey, we have to keep our hop-head signiature. I know that the abv. and IBU's, (being 9.5% and 55 respectively) are different, but I am inspired by the original Courage product, not shackled to it. It will have lots of malt to balance of those hops, believe me.
