Traditionally, imperial was the term for beers made in England specifically for the imperial court of Russia, but today refers to any “big and bold” style. And in this fashion, High Stakes does not disappoint! Tipping the scales at 8.0% alc./vol. and 80 IBU, this beer is remarkably smooth, fruity, and well-balanced.

Honestly, everything else except for the smell, was on point. I would have given the taste higher but it seemed unoriginal. That being said, looks and pours like a beautiful lager.
