I'm trying my first imperial stout, and it could use some sharpening up. I am thinking of increasing the carbonation and adding some Hopzoil.

I received the Hopzoil as a freebie with something I ordered. I have never used it. I have maybe 4.5 gallons of beer. I'm at about 45 IBU and would like to hit 75 or so, based on a recommendation from North Coast.

Can I get away with adding this stuff to finished beer? Their site thinks it may harm the head.
 
I got a free vial of Hopzoil a while back. I added it to a 5 gal batch of hop water as the only hop addition. The flavors were rather subtle. I don't think they have any versions that add bitterness.
