Feb 12, 2009 Bottle, sale at Sam’s, though this is a good deal anyway. More roasty barley and coffee notes than expected, though in a good way. The vanilla/oak flavors aren’t overwhelming, but they’re definitely there. This is a very solid and drinkable Impy Stout, and for better or worse, it’s not overwhelmed by the oak aging. Especially worth $2.99.

Feb 10, 2009 Poured a gloopy black with a large, creamy brown head with lots of falling bubbles. Is there anything sexier than a great pour of an Imperial Stout? Aroma was oak and whisky, but some nice chocolate and roasted coffee if you dig around. Hoppy bitterness up front, then finishes smooth and silky with a long finish.

Feb 10, 2009 From MrChopin via trade. Pour was dark with plenty of ruby highlights. A short, almost tan head formed and quickly evaporated. The aroma was roasted malt, light chocolate and some vanilla. Lacking much in terms of the hops. The flavor was a nice blend of chocolate, roasted malt, vanilla and a bit of wood. Above average mouthfeel. Good but lacking definition.

Feb 9, 2009 Bottle at bockyhorsey’s pad. Pours black with a faint brown head. Smells of oak and chestnuts. Tastes of both with strong elements of baker’s cocoa and coffee. Not a huge beer, but smooth and well balanced.

Feb 5, 2009 This beer was a great surprise from Weyerbacher. Thanks kiefdog for the share. Pours a deep brown/black with a slight khaki head. The aroma is booze, dark malt, vanilla, chocolate, and some hop character. Flavor is chocolate malt, vanilla, and a deep oaky/ whiskey character. Smooth as silk and goes down very easy at 8.2%. Amazing beer, hands down the best from Weyerbacher.
