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).

12oz bottle served in a Duvel tulip. Black body with a lasting large brown head. Smells of dark chocolate, anise, and a bit of pine. Deep bitter roasted flavor, some coffee is present, cocoa, earthy. Very nice.

Bottle. Black with a large brown foam. Aromas are rich dark coffee with bitter chocolate and lots of pine hops. Flavours are strong black coffee with bitter grapefruit. Quite green pine with a herbal, spicy dry finish. Its quite simple but very well put together

Coffee and chocolate are very well represented here. Quite interesting taste combination, Suprisingly drinkable for the high alcohol content. Licorice type finish is present.

This black ale poured with a thin tan head and a rich malt aroma. There is a lot of chocolate and roasted malt flavor - this is a huge beer. Slightly carbonated and nicely hopped.

12 oz bottle, richly dark pour, produces a creamy camel-tan head. Smells of bitter chocolate, pine forest. Similar to the oak aged in most ways, maybe a bit more aggressive, green flavor. Super delicious, a new favorite, will attempt to homebrew clone this one.
