We've just about done with Courage's beers during WW I. Just the Strong Ale to go. Isn't that a relief?

Wondering why there's not much of a cut in the gravity? That's because they discontinued the beers just as the draconian hacking started.
The grists aren't the miost exciting I've ever seen. Pale malt and sugar. With a dsh of black malt in 1917. Oh, and I.M. Co (or is it IMC?), whatever that is. Some type of malt, that's for sure. It crops up in Truman's Burtion logs, too. Not the foggiest idea what it is. Any suggestions are welcome.
