Commercial Description:
Crack open Yeti Imperial Stout’s sophisticated sibling -- Oak Aged Yeti Imperial Stout. Although these beers come from the same clan, they have entirely different personalities. Aging on a blend of French and toasted oak chips infuses a subtle oak and vanilla character into Yeti’s already intense chocolate, roasted coffee malt flavor and hugely assertive hop profile. Who says you can’t tame a Yeti? 75 International Bittering Units (IBUs).

22oz bottle. Had this beer so many times, finally got around to rating it. Pours a deep black with reddish brown edges. Awesome thick foamy chocolate head. Nose is huge vanilla and chocolate with a bit of coffee. Taste starts off very rich and chocolately with a luxurious mouthfeel. Excellent carbonation. Finishes off quite roasty and lightly bitter, so well balanced. Long lingering notes of wood and vanilla. My favorite of the 3 Yeti’s.

Pleasantly surprised to find this on tap at the Bier Stein. Pours black as sin with a lovely thick light brown head. Nice aroma of coffee, oak, bourbon and some dark fruit. Great flavor of coffee, vanilla, cherry, with an overriding oak smokiness to it all. Mouthfeel is very smooth and warming. This is an incredible beer, can’t wait to try the espresso version!

Pours like dark coffee and smells like it too. Thick creamy brown head. Aroma of espresso and chocolate-covered cherries. Thick, silky mouthfeel, a meal in a glass. Tastes of roasted coffee beans, vanilla, caramel, and cherries. Smoky finish. Rock on, Great Divide. You’ve made a truly awesome beer!

Poured from a 22oz. bottle into an Orval chalice. Pours like black coffee with a milk chocolate color head that thins quickly but leaves nice lacing. Strong aroma with hints of cherry and overriding smell of roasted malt. Creamy texture and nutty coffee flavor combined make this one of the best beers I have ever tasted.

Pours thick with a caramelized head. Smells like coffee and perhaps a hint of bourbon. Tastes similar to a Bells Java Stout but with a thicker palate and slightly more taste of alcohol. A wonderful beer.

Bottle that I have been saving since 09/2008 for my 100th rating. Pours a very dark brown, almost black with a nice thick tan head. Aroma is roasted malt, chocolate, and coffee. The coffee stands out slightly more when it hits the pallet. The feel is real cream with slightly more cabonation than I would have expected by the look of the beer. I have an Expresso Oak aged Yeti waiting for me, but I don’t know how it could be much better than this. Worth going out of your way to obtain this beer.
