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.

I can never ’’love’’ a stout that is too chocolaty. And this one is. It’s not bad, but I just can’t ’’love’’ it. I get licerice in the aroma and choclate malts. Pours black with a thick dark brown sugar head. The mouthfeel is smooth and not too dry with would make it better.

(Bottle). Very rich fruit and chocolate aroma. Black body, brown head. Intense flavor of chocolate, roastiness, some tart fruitiness. Doesn’t really transition to a distinct finish, but the flavor lingers on the taste buds for a very long time.

Excellent stout! Yea definitely a great winter beer. Vanilla in the nose with a nice malt character. Flavors of chocolate, coffee, and vanilla stand out. A lot of other flavors will have to try this one again sometime.

Pours a opaque black with a thin tan head. Aroma of coffee, chocolate, and dark fruit. I thought it had good mouthfeel and a large amount of chocolate. I was pretty impressive. Good stuff.

Pours opaque, almost no head (my bottle has been cellaring for about 4 months). Came out of the fridge a little too cold, after it warmed up a little the aroma really started coming out. Obvious coffee and dark fruits in the nose. Same coffee across the palate along with dark chocolate and malts. Overall a very good IS.
