Great Divide Yeti Imperial Stout

A black colored beer, with a dark brown thick foamy head. The aroma of hop bitter, with dark chocolate and coffee. There are dark fruits with roasted malts. The taste of little hop bitter with dark fruits, bitter chocolate and some coffee. A little laurel drop. The aftertaste of bitter chcoclate with notes of sweet.

750ml: pint glass: the pour is an insanely dark, coffee brown, no light gets through. Leaves about a half finger of the most brown head I’ve ever seen! The nose is just as dark... strong roasted notes, earthy tones, some coffee bitters. The taste is also dark, very complex. All the earthy, jerz, coffee, bitter notes I was expecting on the front; however the end revealed some strong esters and lighter, sugary notes. The taste is complex and balanced without a question HOWEVER I felt that some of the flavors were artificial, like maybe syrups were used. Overall a very strong representation of the style. Ɠ.95)

12oz bottle. Pours a pitch black, with a thin brown head. Chocolate and coffee aroma, with a taste to match. A little bit of hop bitterness. A great stout, all around.

Pours black with tan head into my GD tulip glass. I get aromas of toffee, coffee, roasted grains, the glaze on the skin of a thanksgiving turkey, salt, and some tar. Flavor is similar aroma, but with more emphasis on burnt grains and coffee flavors. Finishes with roasty bitterness and nice alcohol warmth. It’s a bit thinner than I expected. Overall, a good but truly excellent RIS.

351 mL bottle. Opaque chestnut brown with just a ring of head. Very strong aroma, of chocolate chip cookies, espresso, alcohol, and cream(!). Flavour is great, but not as big as the aroma, with dark chocolate, mocha, caramel, and roast. Some c-hops there too. Nice hop bitterness in the finish. Full, smooth, and creamy. Nice.

Bottled. Almost black ink like color. Thick chocolate colored head settling like guiness; wonderful head. Smells of toffee, espresso, strong dark chocalate. Flavors mimics smell; rich. Finishes with a quick bite like coffee. A real treat!

(bottle). Black color. Medium size, light brown head which is mostly diminishing. Hoppy aroma. Roasted malt flavor with light hops and sweetness. Avg duration. Light bitter finish. Slick texture. Soft carbonation. Spare lacing.
