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).

Black with good, creamy cappuccino head / Smooth nose of chocolate, coffee, and cream / Medium to full body, chewy, with good balance but heat on the good, dry finish / Flavors of dark roast, almost burnt, coffee, unsweetened chocolate, vanilla, coconut, and oak / Extremely dark roast flavors.

1pt6oz bottle. Pours thick dark black with a chocolate milkshake head, and I mean in color and density. Smells of cinamin, chocolate, and dark fruit. Tastes of bread crust, dark chocolate, roasted malts, sweetly fermented fruits, creamy vanilla, lightly smoky, and heavily seasoned with pepper. Lots of alcohol presence, as its very warm with alcohol and seemingly a chipotle pepper note. Very little oak aged flavor, but enough to contribute to its earthiness.

Shared during some monday night football with curly, scottyp, and barrios. Sampled with the regular, chocolate, and expresso. Wonderful black pour with great brown head. Great smooth vanilla oaked version of the original. Maybe better than the original.

Pours a lacing, lasting ring of tan head with a dark brown body. Aromas of roasted malts, dark bread, and vanilla. Flavor is dark bread, vanilla, brown sugar, some soy sauce, and roasted malts. Finish is dry with roasted and vanilla notes.

Pours a dark black with light brown head. Aroma of expresso, roasted caramel malt, vanilla, oak, dark fruit. Similar taste, excellent blend of chocolate, expresso, sweet malts, hops, oak. Nice lingering finish. Exceptional imperial stout.

[Bomber] Toffee and chocolate on the nose, raisin as well. Coffee here as well. The chocolate here predominates for flavor. I really get the heat right after it. Malty then kicks in, with some tobacco and hints of vanilla. An obviously well-made beer, but I can’t elevate it to the level of previous rater

Everyone loves this beer I unfortunely do not. It lack diminsion and complexity. Maybe it just my palate. Pitch black color that has the same appearance of Bell’s expedition stout but lacks all other properties.
