3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 ekstedt (4540) - Göteborg, - SEP 20, 2009From a bottle at SB&WF. Black with medium beige/brown head. Strong dark chocolate aroma, with oak, vanilla, and some coffee. Medium to full bodied, medium carbonation. Well balanced, dry finish. Good, but not up to the level of the ordinary Yeti.
4.2 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20 tdmuel (80) - South Carolina, USA - MAY 18, 2013
Pours nearly pitch black with a tiny bit of red getting through on the edges, and a bubbly mocha head. Dark bitter chocolate on the nose, hints of oak and coffee, roasted malts and a touch of vanilla. Great taste, lots of oak up front, there’s a good bit of earthy bitter chocolate, lots of roasted malt and a bit of vanilla. Very well balanced, maybe my favorite of the Yetis.

4.7 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20 Bestbrew1 (45) - Minnesota, USA - MAY 15, 2013
I like this one a lot especially when I have the smell of a wood fire to go with it. It can be a little boozy which was expected out of a RIS but overall this is a great beer and is worth a try.

This beer is an opaque black color with a small brown head that fades to a ring at a medium pace, and the aroma is reminiscent of cocoa, roasted malts, and a hint of espresso. The taste is divine with its superb balance of mild bitterness, mild umami, and mild sweet, and the palate combines a oily texture, bitter finish, full body, and soft carbonation.

On tap at Rocket City Brewfest. Dark brown, almost black with a thick creamy head and a rich aroma. Smelled of roasted coffee and peat. Rich flavor - dark chocolate, coffee, malt, some vanilla and a bit of spice. Ric, full feel in the mouth; slightly bitter aftertaste with a hint of pepper.

Pours very dark with a extremely dark head. I taste hints of hops, chocolate, and oak. Beer is very full in the mouth. Has some lacing.

4.5 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20 Marheb (1167) - Montréal, Quebec, CANADA - MAY 8, 2013
(Apr 2011): moins agreable au nez que les 2 autres mais probablement celle qui a le mieux préservé sa complexité au niveau des saveurs.
