| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Feb 5, 2010 Pours a dark brown/black with a thin, caramel colored head. Aroma is of coffee, molasses, oak and hops. Taste is full bodied, with nice lightly toasted malt, caramel, coffee, chocolate and well balanced hops and oak to balance it. Palate is nice and smooth in addition. In my opinion, this is what stout should be. portableparty (28), Blaine, Minnesota, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 18/20 | Feb 3, 2010 Bomber to snifter. Very nice aroma chocolate, vanilla and coffee scents. Appearance is almost thick as oil with a sweet dark tan head and great lacing. Taste is as good as regular YETI but with richer chocolate and coffee and even earthy flavors. Palate is rich yet thin oily and faint booze. Overall amazing imperial stout and is now in my top 10. branspra (269), Arlington, Virginia, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jan 30, 2010 Bottle. Pours a think black with a moderately sized, frothy brown head. Lacing is very strong. Aromas of chocolate, molasses, brown sugar and port. Palate is very smooth with a creamy, dense texture that finishes very sticky. Flavors of chocolate and butterscotch dominate with a nice toasty finish. Great beer and one that I will be enjoying again. rags2rags (59), Columbus, Ohio, USA
| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Jan 29, 2010 One of my favorite imperial stouts. Bottle from Kenny Road Maket, poured into snifter. Big chocolatey aroma with undertones of oak, hops, and burnt malts. The flavor takes those aromas, but the malts yield more coffee, chocolate, vanilla, and cherry flavors. Full bodied with a hoppy finish and a warming feeling from the alcohol. Tasty.

Ya’ll have been drinking the koolaid. This beer is much more like an IPA then a stout. Missing choc and coffee notes, all I pretty much smell and taste is honey cherry and hops. Not enough carbonation. The only thing about this beer that resembles a stout is the the color. Other then this fact it’s just a good beer. bleeng (632), Spring near Beersel, Texas, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jan 28, 2010 Bomber. Pours opaque black with a dark tan head. Nose is chocolately, alcohol, sharp, a bit woody, roasty. Taste is very alcoholic and bitter, woody, chocolately, burnt malts. Thick body. Slight burn on the end with full flavors lasting all the way down. Just this side of great. cirtap (19), Florida, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jan 28, 2010 Bottle, pours black with mocha head. Aroma of chocolate, coffee, oak, hops, and malts. Really rich, sweet flavor of chocolate, coffee and malts with an interesting oak finish. Really reminds me of the Rasputin XII I had last week. This is a fantastic beer and reasonably priced too. jredmond (1165), New Jersey, USA
