True to its name, the Weyermann® Imperial Stout is a classic example of a British strong dark ale. A firm Cappuccino-like head rides atop the opaque, ebony brew. Upfront, the beer emanates delicate and enticing aromas of licorice; in the back, it finishes with warming notes of alcohol. On the palate, this deep black ale has a substantial mouthfeel. It also delivers unmistakable tastes of dark, bitter chocolate, fine cacao, as well as some gentle roastiness. There are also hints of coffee and vanilla, reminiscent of Kahlua, the Mexican liqueur. Overall, this brew is well-balanced with a restrained bitterness and an equally restrained residual sweetness, which makes for a delicious sipping beer.

Bottle. It pours a dark brown body, looking clear, and with a small, dense, beige head. Lightly roasted, burnt sugary aroma with some licorice. A bit grainy and sourish. The flavor is rather roasted, with licorice, burnt sugar and a little bitterness towards the end. Full-bodied and quite dry on the palate. Pleasant carbonation. Lasting bitter and roasted finish with licorice. A quite pleasant imperial stout, but they have a long way to go to compete with the best. 120623
