    Anyone seen it around town yet? I checked Chucks yesterday, they didn't get it yet. I'm dying to try it.

    Is this the official name of the much-anticipated SN imperial stout? I've been off the grid lately...
    This is on my must-get list too though.

    Is this different than the impy stout from the latest Beer Camp?

    Yeah I'm pretty sure it's not the same thing as the beer camp oatmeal stout, that was like 8% if I remember right....I think Narwhal clocks in at like 10%. I know that it's coming in 4 packs, like Hoptimum did.

    Different beers. Narwhal will be a seasonal release in the vein of bigfoot and from what I have heard will be based loosely on the Ken and Fritz 30th Ann. Stout.

    It is out in California and I would expect it to make its way north shortly.

    Cool. At least now I know what to look for. I was expecting something called Sierra Nevada Imperial Stout, as the last time I'd heard about this release I don't think it had been given the name Narwhal yet.
    Continue to love SN's branding BTW. Just classy as hell.

    It was on the shelf at Elizabeth Station here in Bellingham yesterday. I didn't grab it, maybe tomorrow or Monday.

    It was on tap at ES last night as well, so I suspect everyone will be swimming in it soon.

    It's available in Seattle now. Beer Junction announced yesterday that they got it in. It should be available in other stores as well.

    It was on tap at a SN night at a local bar last night. You should be seeing it all over soon. I mean, if the 'Ham has the stuff, the rest of the world must.
