Commercial Description:
Formerly Weyerbacher Imperial Stout.
Rich, velvety and deliciously complex, Weyerbacher Imperial Stout is a truly distinctive winter warmer. We use seven types of malt and two varieties of hops to bring forth this big brew. Quite robust and roasty on the palate, Weyerbacher Imperial Stout has a wonderfully fruity nose and a moderately dry finish. The taste is highly complex- perhaps you'll even discern notes of expresso or chocolate.

Solid black with a compact tan/light brown head. Aroma and flavor are very roasty with coffee and slight burnt tones. A bit thin but an overall solid brew with good complexity and the alcohol is not too dominant.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Courtesy of xproudfoot. Black and opaque with a small, light brown head. Aroma of lightly burned malt. Medium body with a discreet tartness. Some roasted malt with a vaguely burned note. Subdued bitterness from the malts. Generally a bit on the thin side for an Imperial Stout. 191206

Oily opaque black with a quickly fading caramel colored head. Aroma is very roasty stouty indeed with a sweet bubblegum hint. Taste is somewhat more traditional, and not as roasty or overpowering as I usually expect from an Istout.

Bottle. Pitch black colour with a little and fast disappearing head. Aroma of licorice, roastedness, chocolate and little coffee. Flavour of roastedness, chocolate and coffee, ends up thin for a imp. stout. Low body.

12 oz Bottle-Poured a very dark brown color w/a slight reddish tint. Floral aroma of roasted malt. Big flavored stout-hits you with a lot of things, malt, barley, roasted almonds, smokey peat, coffee & chocolate. Very robust, but still very smooth & drinkable; some might say it was almost too smooth for a Stout. This is one you could sit back & enjoy a few of, not one that knocks you over the head & is so strong it takes you an hour to drink one. Long chocolate finish, very refreshing.

Pours an opaque black with a thin tan head. Aroma is sweet and malty, nice roasty character. Flavor is strong semi-sweet dark chocolate over sugared coffee ... very rich. Nice lightly bitter coffee finish. Very good.
