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).

This is another great IMP stout. While I haven’t tried its big brother yet I’m sure it is just as great. This beer is dark, thick and is a beer to enjoy. It tastes of coffee, dark chocolate and slightly bitter. The hops are definitely underplayed which can be nice. Highly recommend this beer and will always try to keep it on hand.

Just incredible. Really tempting aroma with a pitch black color. The flavor is very full with a chocolaty, caramely flavor that gives way to a toffee aftertaste. Absolutely delicious

Release 2003<P> The beer after disemboguing the 22 ounce brown bottle sets in the glass a pitch-black with a moderate and creamy chocolate brown head, the lace formed is a thick and glutinous blanket to conceal the glass from view. “Ah That Smell”, that only a big bad boy Imperial Stout gives you, heavy aroma of coffee, burnt grains, bitter-sweet chocolate, all supported by a pleasant sweetness, also a nice bit of hop floral spiciness to seal off this treat to both the ocular and olfactory senses, start is sweet, thick with malted grain, the top is rich and full bodied,. Finish is dynamic in its hop spiciness, the acidity moderate and the rich chocolate and coffee flavors continue to the very dry and alcohol bitter end, the 9.5 percent ABV, leaves a warm trail right along to the bottom of the tummy. What a majestic beer, quite reminiscent of “Dark Lord”, and my thanks and gratitude go to Argo0 for this bottle.

pours a very dark black colour with an oily consistance, fine brown tainted head which quickly reduces but leaves a nice lacing, deep aroma of black chocolate, cookies, prune and alcohol, roasted, sweet, very oily and full-bodied, the finish is very long and very bitter with a warming alcohol touch and notes of hazelnut and grapefruit - highly complex and dangerously drinkable; I love it !

Bomber (three to four years old): Pours jet black with a thin brown head, aroma has huge chocolate, coffee and pine with notes of oranges, starts and ends bitter with a long bitter smoky chocolate/caramel ending. Thick bodied with oily mouthfeel, mild carbonation and just plain yummy.

Super stout, black in color, decent tan head which disappeared rather quickly, excellent lacing left around the glass though, aroma full of roasted malt, chocolate & coffee, very smooth & drinkable, alcohol level is hidden vey well, almost too well, flavors were a wonderful complexitty of dark chocolate, caramel, dark roasted coffee & just enough bitterness from hops to balance it all out, wonderful stout

Heavy vapors of alcohol, chocolate-coffee liqueur. Roasted black malts, molasses, licorice and smoke. Light hops aroma, overpowered by the malts. Inky black liquid with chocolate brown creamy lacing head. Heavy body, almost oily, with medium carbonation. Alcohol warming. Starts heavy and sweet, with big roasted malt, chocolate coffee notes, bitter and alkaline. Big hops finish to mellow out the sweetness. Big on taste throughout, starts sweet and ends on dry nutty bitterness. Good warming, too.

A black beer with a dark brown head. The aroma is of coffee, chocolate, and roasted malt and it is the same notes coming from the flavor. This is a great beer. Thanks to Mads Berg for sharing this one.
