Poured a murky brown color with an off white soap bubble head. Rich aromas of dark fruits (raisin, fig, prune), toffee, and booze. Full bodied, sweet, and sticky in the mouth with a nice boozy flavor. The malt bill was hefty and imparted a melange of toffee, spice, caramel and molasses flavors. A decent amount of piney hop flavor and moderate bitterness countered the big malt backbone well and melded nicely with the booze. Delicious stuff. CanIHave4Beers (906), Des Moines, Iowa, USA

This was a highlight of the tasting for me, not because it’s rare, in fact I didn’t even know it existed till it got brought out, but this was wonderfully tasty. Pours a hazy red with the sort of espresso swirl head. The aroma is full of a nice malty sweetness well balanced with some good oak notes. The flavor is just awesome plenty of vanilla and bourbon with a good cherry like fruitiness, just a really nice beer. FirmButtstone (47), Cedar Rapids, Iowa, USA

| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Mar 4, 2009 Well thanks to Nick AKA "Crosling". This beer is a monster, heavy bourbon flavors all around. Right when the seal broke smells of whiskey and alcohol burned my nostrils. This one got me pumped since I love bourbon. Poured dark brown and plenty of dark tan head. Taste was mainly carmel and sugar up front then a strong blast bourbon and wood on the finish. Each drink left me wanting more. I did not share this bad boy with anyone; damn I’m greedy. It had me walking funny thats for sure. I enjoyed this more than the BA Nummer. mreusch (741), Olathe, Kansas, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Feb 28, 2009 750ml bottle, #84/461, with a big thanks to BlackForestCO for yet another rare treat! Pours a slightly hazy burgundy brown with a one finger creamy tan head. Aroma is bourbon, oak, dark fruits, and vanilla. Flavor is more of the same, a little prickly on the tongue, but overall pretty smooth with a lasting finish. Stronger on the barrel aging for sure, but works pretty well for me; enjoyed every bit as much as the Barrel Aged Yeti. Thanks again Jake! ericandersnavy (1127), crossroads, Texas, USA

Nice pretty deep amber reddish color with a ring of canvas colored bubbles for a head. Nose is vanilla, boubon, caramel, and some citrus. Taste is the same with a thick long finish. Solid beer but extended barrel time is better for the yeti.
