Great Divide Oak Aged Yeti Imperial Stout

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

Pours black with a darker-than-usual espresso-like head. Aroma is beautifully complex and a good indication of the flavor to follow. Very robust flavor all in balance and also very complex. The oak adds a nice spicy/vanilla character that is unmistakeable. Great beer!

Pours a beautiful head. Color of Coffee and it’s thick. It’s sweet to the nose, but you can smell the roasted grains/ malts quite well in the nose of this big brew. The appearance is near perfect. Dark, wonderful lacing Just the right bitterness meets this sweet beer at the out. Very well balanced.

22 oz. bottle. Pours bitch black with a dark brown head. Aroma of coffee, chocolate, molasses, syrup, vanilla, etc... Very rich flavor and full bodied. One of the best imperial stout’s I’ve had.

Pours out black with brown head. Taste is rich and roasty. Nice coffe, chocolate and wood notes. Slight bitter bite with some alcohol warm. Great balance, tasty Imperial stout.

Pours black with a dark brown head. Nose of chocolate, coffee, hops wood, bourbon and pine. NIce full mouthfeel. Really good beer.

Bottle. Very thick and very strong. Pours like pancake syrup. No head. Has a roasted, coffee aroma and a stout, roasted taste. Very delicious.

Very similar to standard Yeti, but I’ll bump it up a flavor notch for being a little more well-rounded and smooth. Black, tan head. Roasted malt, coffee, and chocolate on the aroma. Flavor is coffee, dark chocolate, roasted malt, oak, vanilla, bourbon, and more hop bitterness than usual. Full and smooth on the palate.

750 mL. Pours pitch black with an extremely dark brown head one-finger head. Sheets of lacing. Holy crap. Aromas of molasses, maple syrup, espresso, cocoa powder, dark chocolate, black licorice, vanilla extract, tobacco, and some wood notes. I expected this to be more intense and harsher than the normal Yeti, but this is infinitely smoother, richer, creamier, and all around just plain better. Tremendous soft and velvety mouthfeel. Tons of unsweetened dark chocolate and espresso with a long piney hops finish. 9.5% is well masked. This is outstanding.
