Commercial Description:
Crack open Yeti Imperial Stout’s sophisticated sibling -- Oak Aged Yeti Imperial Stout. Although these beers come from the same clan, they have entirely different personalities. Aging on a blend of French and toasted oak chips infuses a subtle oak and vanilla character into Yeti’s already intense chocolate, roasted coffee malt flavor and hugely assertive hop profile. Who says you can’t tame a Yeti? 75 International Bittering Units (IBUs).

22 oz bottle. Pours black with a medium tan head. Strong sweet aromas of chocolate, vanilla, dark fruits, and oak character. Flavor is roasty chocolate, coffee, vanilla, and some definite citrusy hops and smoke. The flavor is not as sweet as the aroma but every bit as good. This is a delicious and complex imperial stout.

This has been sitting around awhils so figured to drink it...wasn’t sure if I’d like it for some reason. Pour was nearly black with a huge, creamy brown head. Aroma was a bit subdued, but it had chocolate, vanilla and some alcohol. Flavor was good...chocolate bitterness with slight oak and toffee. It did have a bit of metallic taste...most likely from sitting too long. Palate was good and smooth. I think this would be fantastic from a keg.

Black pour, brown foamy head. Roast malt, mocha, alcohol/barrel aromas. Flavors included some raisin, caramel, little vanilla. Charcoal midway, mellows away into a nicer finish than the regular Yeti. Lessened the bitterness I found in the regular, but the barrel lended a bit of burntness to me. Everyone seems to like this version better, but I find pluses and minuses in both. Excellent though.

Pours a frothy thick head, aroma was nice but not too strong, chocolaty and oak flavors with a mild finish, would have liked a little more on the finish but overall excellent beer that lives up to its reputation

Bottle, EBF 08, Copenhagen. Black. Oaky nose, slightly sweet with some hints of basement. Mouth is oaky, brackish, chocolatey and bitter. Quite bitter all the way through, sweet end. Excellent.

Bottle. Oaky chocolate noses. Oak and roast flavors build on the tough. Not overly heavy on the the finish. A fine drink!

Pours out black with a frothy medium brown head about a finger thick, thin head remained the entire time the beer lasted. Scent of coffee shop mocha and smoke, almost like a campfire. Creamy espresso with spice and dark chocolate to start, finishes with anise, medium carbonation. Aftertaste has a bit of sweetness to it, not too much. Alcohol is barely noticed in the taste. Very nice and drinkable, one of the smoothest I’ve had. Top notch.

0.65l - Tobbacco, spice, smells of autumn on the nose. Impentetrably black on the pour, yielding a small and fleeting dark tan head. Moves slower in the glass, almost like it had weight. Espresso giving way to hops and astringency. A nice ride.
