Combined with its full-bodied richness, this symphony of flavors is what makes Imperial Stout the ultimate sipping beer. BJ's brewers don't hold back in their interpretation of this classic style.

"The best of the beers I sampled at BJ's. Black colored with a nice thick tanish head. Roasted dark chocolate flavor with toasty malts and a touch of coffee. Creamy and pretty well balanced. Finishes with some bitter hops. Some alcohol shows late. A very good beer!"

"Easily a beer that you can pass while at BJ's. I know that I won't be ordering it again. An aroma of coffee and roasted malts, with a subtle acridness to it. Appearance was filtered, dark brown to light black. Water-like consistency to it. Flavor had too much alcohol present and not enough sweetness to counter it. Coffee and roasted malts dominate the flavor with the alchol present...it just wasn't enjoyable at all. Next?"

"A lackluster brew. I was very interested in a Stout at this brewpub was greatly disappointed. Taste left a lot to be desired but it did have a nice color with adequate head. I recommend some of their other brews."

"Why do these guys have to serve all their beers ice cold and in frosted glasses? Had to wait 10 minutes to drink this thing. Decent malted aroma. Thin palate. Decent flavor. Best one I've tried so far."
