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.

12 oz bottle from a trade. pours black with a tan head. dark fruit dominates the nose. the flavour is also quite fruity but there is some coffee there too. lacking hops. thin in the mouth. not something id seek out again but not a terrible beer.

From a bottle poured black with a small head. Sweet malty flavor with a quick finish.

12oz - Brown/black pour with thin dark tan head. Roasted marshmallows and oranges on nose. Not much carbonation per the style, a little watery. Underwhelmed.

Location: 12 oz bottle that I’m pretty sure came from State Line, 9/20/09

Aroma: Lots of roasted coffee and chocolate in the nose
Appearance: Dark black with a thin brown head, not much lace
Flavor: Similar to the nose, roasted flavor, malty, light bitterness
Palate: Lightish body for a stout, short duration, a touch thin
Overall Impression: This is an alright stout, but the pour wasn’t particularly exciting, and palate was a bit dull. It wasn’t particularly exciting though, so I can’t go too much higher then this for the score. Not a bad beer, just not a real winner.

Pours a nice black with disappearing tan head. Aroma is nice as it warms - some fruit, roast, chocolate, good RIS tar. Flavor is similar to the aroma, very nice and roasty. Moderate body for a RIS. Overall, rather nice.

Black color with a quickly vanishing thin head. Aroma is a little salty, with some soy sauce and roasted barley. Thick, malty flavor. Some chocolate and very light coffee. Quite sweet. Simple but decent.

Average imperial stout that was pretty mild and uninteresting. There are so many out there, nothing made this memorable.

Nice and drinkable, plus a gorgeous pour, but far from a high-quality imperial stout. The lingering flavor is better than the upfront. Just not enough complexity.
