I need to do my Imperial Stormtrooper again.

Was a tasty and highly hopped up stout. The official beverage of the Coruscant Diplomatic Escort Command aka Vader's Raiders. :geek

My Oktoberfast had a higher OG and lower FG than I expected. Can I call it Imperial Oktoberfast?

Well, that's why I used quotation marks! Aaaaaaaand, it is a Great American Beer Fest "style". So overall it's a silly prefix to affix to many beer styles, but it is a quicker way to define your intent on others where commercial examples are more prevalent. Imperial Wheats or an Imperial Extra Special Bitter makes my head hurt though.
