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).

Sampled straight from the tit at the Great Divide brewery when at GABF 2008. This and the Espresso Yeti were trip highlights. Have a couple glasses of water with this one.

bottle from metzlers in denton, tx. poured black with a chocolate brown head. aroma of chocolate, dark roasts, hops, some pine, and alcohol. flavor was the same as the nose with the addition of oak. full body, low carb, some bitter and dryness. cant wait for the barrel aged.

When I saw the email about cask Oaked Yeti I had to hit up the taproom. The appearance of the beer was spot on. It was poured into a Yeti tulip glass. it was solid black with a fluffy cocoa colored head. The smell was muted and the whole tap room smells a little malty anyway. The taste was roasty, a little vanilla, and much more subdued than the bottled version. The mouth-feel was the best part but what do you expect from cask? I still prefer the bottled version.

Bottle. Pours midnight black, with no head. Smells of coffee malt, chocolate, burnt oak, and a hint of the boozy alcohol. Taste is similar. Lots of coffee and strong burnt malt notes and a hint of the alcohol. Great, in your face imperial stout.

Pours black with a darker-than-usual espresso-like head. Aroma is beautifully complex and a good indication of the flavor to follow. Very robust flavor all in balance and also very complex. The oak adds a nice spicy/vanilla character that is unmistakeable. Great beer!

Pours a beautiful head. Color of Coffee and it’s thick. It’s sweet to the nose, but you can smell the roasted grains/ malts quite well in the nose of this big brew. The appearance is near perfect. Dark, wonderful lacing Just the right bitterness meets this sweet beer at the out. Very well balanced.

22 oz. bottle. Pours bitch black with a dark brown head. Aroma of coffee, chocolate, molasses, syrup, vanilla, etc... Very rich flavor and full bodied. One of the best imperial stout’s I’ve had.
