Opaque dark brown beer, small pale tan head. Smooth palate, semi dry, decent fine carbonation. Smooth dark malts with a touch of dark malt cream. I dunno about Sarsparilla, something like bitterish licorice. A little dark fruits underneath. Finishes with more dark malt and this bitterish licorice type thang lingers on. A grower. Could be sweeter for me, a bit too bitter for an Impy.

Bottle from Geers. Pours cloudy black with a lasting, thick, foamy, beige head; some lacing. Aroma of toast, tobacco, rye & brown bread, coffee roast, fondant, earth. Taste has sweetish dried fruit, sweetened dark chocolate & nuts, revolving around a bitter core of toast, rye, earth with an umami accent. Dry, toasty finish, earthy hops blending with the rye & and ashy tobacco aspect, tad spicy even (sarsaparilla I suspect), slightest hint of whisky alcohol. Medium body, creamy texture, soft carbonation. It doesn't always have to be a sweet Imperial Stout, this one does that job well.

Cask at Ealing Beer Festival 2019, Ealing, London. A black coloured pour with a medium beige head on top. Roasty, malty, chocolate, burnt aroma and taste. Pretty harsh and bitter really but OK. Weird Beard seem to have lost their mojo recently.
