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.

A dark rich body with light roasted aroma. Slight fruity flavors mixed with the chocolaty almost toffeeish flavor.

Pours a dark brown, with a fluffy brown head. Aroma is dry, astringent, not the best. Has a great velvet mouthfeel. Seriously sweet flavor with pronounced hop bitterness. Pretty darn creamy for an imperial. A good beer.

Thick and jet black without a head. Huge coffee aroma. Flavour is complex, initially coffee, then chocolate. Heavily roasted bitterness but a bit of a burnt aftertaste. Thanks Ciderguy

A sweet coffee cavalry rides proud over rolling vineyards...A dust cloud rises behind the galloping, chocolate-hoofed brigade...Alcohol calvary is not entirely abolished but a few forthcoming sips (or bottles) of sweet molasses should rescue the ailing tongue...

Smoked coffee, choclate aroma, most noatably the coffee. The color is a solid black, and little bit foam lingering around the edge of the beer. Flavor is a little thin. It does have the nice trademark imperial stout flavor.

Pours black with small brown head. Different feel than most other impy stouts ive had..taste is more of a porter..smokey,roasted,burnt at first.dry in the finish. with some coffee, alcohol, and a brief sourness in the bottle im currently drinking,never noticed before. its subtle but takes away from flavor for me now.i like weyerbacher. and this ones good as any.

"Chocolate moose head"? LOL. Anyway... Opaque black, thin brown head that disappears quickly. Nice aroma with mellow coffee, chocolate, and vanilla. Flavor is similar; nice and smooth. Mildly thick but not super-thick. Nice, easy-drinking. Doesn’t show the high alcohol at all except through its slight warmth upon exhale after swalling. Nice.
