Great Divide Oak Aged Yeti Imperial Stout

Brewed by Great Divide Brewing Company
Style: Imperial Stout
Denver, Colorado USA

Thick. Black. Sticky. Simply amazing. 22 oz bomber poured a beautiful dark caramel head. Taste of chocolate and vanilla with a mild oak undertone. Always a favorite!

Poured a thick black with a brown creamy head. The head eventually went down to just a film and left a light amount of lacing. As with the regular Yeti the aroma was primarily chocolate and again on the mild side. The beer had a thick creamy texture and an initial mild chocolate flavor. The flavor developed a strong dark chocolate bitterness and a nice alcohol warming. The flavor was a bit more mellow that the regular Yeti. The finish maintained a good hop bite. Also an excellent beer!!

A stout beer that demands respect. A very deep bitter stout that reminds me of the first time I had a sip of beer. "People can’t drink this and like it." But after the small glass I had it grew on you as a slightly better then typical stout.

Pour is thick dark black with a great brown head, strong notes of chocolate and roasted malty coffee, flavor is strong with chocolate and coffee at first, but you can soonafter taste the vanilla undertones, finishes sweet and dry.

2009 Bottle - Thanks SpringsLicker! - Pours an opaque almost black with a massive brown head...aroma is chocolate, oak, very hop forward, with burnt coffee undertones...flavour is massive up front, chocolate, bitter barrel, dk malt, serious hops...fucking huge imperial stout, a little bitter but i’m sure the bitterness mellows over time into an incredible treat...

Bottle. Pours murky black, thick, with a tan head. Wood, chocolate, coffee abound, with a note of hop bitterness but not really hop flavor or aroma - a great balance. The murky dark appearance, an excitingly thick mouthfeel and the very well-rounded flavor make this one of my faves.

This beer is awesome! My favorite as of now. Aroma of malt, coffee, hops. Taste of the same with a nice oak-ness, and vanilla round out the flavors.

I have never seen a bigger gap between the oaked and regular version. Brings out the chocolate and fruity undertones and the aging smoothes it out beautlfully. Great!
