Commercial Description:
Great Divide's Yeti Imperial Stout is an onslaught of the senses. An almost viscous, inky-black brew, Yeti opens with a massive, roasty, chocolate, coffee malt flavor that eventually gives way to rich toffee and burnt caramel notes. Packed with an enormous quantity of American hops, Yeti's hop profile reveals a slightly citrusy, piney, and wonderfully dry hoppy finish. 75 International Bittering Units (IBUs).

Bottle: dark black pour with a tan head, burnt toffee, coffee and malt, taste is caramel, dark chocolate, with a slight hop presence in the finish, this is a very nice imperial stout. I’ve had the Oak Aged on draft (didn’t take notes though) and don’t recall liking it as much as this. Perhaps I was already drunk and didn’t realize what I was drinking.

(bottle) Pours a thick inky black color with a nice dark tan head. There’s nice coffee, roasted malt, and chocolate aromas, with some piney hops as well. Taste has slight soy sauce to it, with strong roasted malt and coffee along with a nice finish of hops. Mouthfeel is very thick, this is a really nice beer.

Great pour. Looks like a stout should...thick and black. No light shining through this baby. Small tan head. Aroma of coffee and roasted malt. Taste is the same with some hops crispness. Very creamy mouth.

12 oz bottle Pours a jet black with a 1/2" tan head. Nose is coffee and roasted malts. Mouthfeel is thick and heavy. Flavor is roasted malt , mild coffee, some hops. Didn’t get the hoppy bitterness in the finish as some have. I love stouts and this one was no exception.

Nice coffee/chocolate, alcoholic aroma with a slight dankness that is only lacking to the oak-aged version. Taste is total coffee and chocolate with bitter/smooth hops. Very very nice. Not as good as a fresh oak-aged.

Pours a pitch black with a small, dense tan head. Full, rich, sweet biscuity aroma. Woah! Roasty flavour with more of the sweet biscuit taste - graham cracker? Lots of fresh, crisp hops. Creamy body with good carbonation. What a nice beer - very strong!

Pours black with a brown, frothy head. The aroma is full of bitter hops and coffee... very heavy. The flavor is more of the same... tons of coffee, bitter hops and hints of chocolate and caramel. I would like to sample this side by side with JavaStout... to my memory, they taste the same. Very creamy and heavy. Not quite as sweet as I prefer my stouts, but a really good beer regardless.

[Bottle] Pours black with a nice dark tan head. Aroma is malt, chocolate, a little coffee. Taste is roasted malt, coffee, some bitterness in the finish from the hops. Good, but a little hoppy. Thick mouthfeel. Long roasted finish. Smooth. A little hoppier than I like my stouts, but very well crafted.
