Great Divide Oak Aged Yeti Imperial Stout

Bottle. Pours black with a reddish-brown, long lasting head. Aroma is roasted malt, chocolate, burnt wood, vanilla, and piny hops. Full, smooth, creamy body. Flavor starts rather sweet, like a chocolate covered raisin with just a hint of vanilla and fruit. Moves to a more roasted malt note, accompanied by burnt wood and a bit more vanilla. Finishes with roasted coffee beans, dry wood, pine needles, and bitter hops. Clear and complex. Tasty, yet subtle. The best beer I’ve tried to date.

Yum, this is very good. But I’m not much in the mood for stouts now that it’s getting warmer out. I’ll try this one again next winter. Yep.

Dark as dark with a nice frothy brown head. Nose of roasted malt, chocolate and vanilla. Flavor is toasted nut, coffee, chocolate and towards then end a lot of vanilla. Very smooth texture that coats the palate. The alcohol just warms the soul from start to finish.

Draft @ Barley’s. One time, when I was working for a macro-brewery, the brewmaster made us take chocolate malts and chew on them raw. This beer tasted a lot like that: really roasted, earthy, and extremely dry and bitter. This poured extremely black with a quickly dissolving deep tan head. Could not initially get any smell whatsoever, so I let it warm up a bit. Pulled some vanilla out, but the oak barrel smell dominated. Epic alcohol bite. Would like to try this in the bottle and compare.

wandered into liqour loft here in tallahassee to just browse, found this beast waiting for me. can’t wait to try their barley wine.

Very very good imperial stout! Poured a nice dark brown almost black. I could smell the smokiness with hints of chocolate. The flavor was well balenced having an aftertaste of vanilla, which was unexpected. The palate was nice and somewhat thick. A must try beer! I wish these were sold around here in jamestown, perhaps at a wegmans.....

Pours night black with a nice light coffee head. Aroma of chocolate, oak, vanilla, coffee and a bit of grapefruit hop. A bit harsh and alcholic mouthfeel. Taste is the same as aroma but with too much of an alcoholic bite that got sickly sweet as it warmed. Nicely complex though. undsioux7

Black with a lighter brown head, lovely toffe aroma with vanilla, chocolate, coffe and caramell. Candy like with dark berries. Full bodied and think, taste is complex yet very robust and roasted. Delivers what the aroma promises with a good amount of chocolate, wood and hops in the aftertaste. One of my favourites.
