COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Great Divide’s Yeti Imperial Stout is an onslaught of the senses. An almost viscous, inky-black brew, Yeti opens with a massive, roasty, chocolate, coffee malt flavor that eventually gives way to rich toffee and burnt caramel notes. Packed with an enormous quantity of American hops, Yeti’s hop profile reveals a slightly citrusy, piney, and wonderfully dry hoppy finish. 75 International Bittering Units (IBUs).

Well, my first beer officially rated on Ratebeer, thanks to my friend haslinger. I was a bit afraid throwing down just top numbers on my first beer, but this beer just exceeds all expectations. A very smooth, but heavy flavor loaded with hops and chocolate. Absolutely one of the best beers I’ve ever had. (oh and light cannot pass through it)

Veldig god stout! Dyp farge, deilig fyldig smak, nesten som flytende karamell. Akkurat passe røyksmak. Nydelig! ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

This pour like motor oil with little to no head. The aroma is something like what one would expect a mythical Yeti to smell like: wet, mouldering dog. When you get past the smell, wow! When the stout first enters your mouth there is too much for your tongue to pick up. Give it a moment and you’ll start to notice a myriad of flavors followed by a satifying burnt flavour. Definately not for the unaware drinker!

Aroma is coffee, cocoa. Taste is coffee, chocolate, malts, and molasses. Don’ t really notice the alcohol. Delicious.

Beautiful opaque brown coloring with a nice carmel head. Maybe I was too enamored by the look of Yeti, but the taste just didn’t hit the mark. I found this beer to be too bitter, not in a good hoppy way but in a soy-sause kinda way. Head retention was non-existent. Left a tar-like coating in the glass.

One of my favourite stouts. Very complex, lots of different flavours and the superior taste of blackness. Very well hopped for a stout. A must drink for all beer lovers regardless of favourite style.

A vanilla /chocolate /spice/dark fruit ;) a tan thick froth, the tast is well of vanilla, dark fruit, and resin/caramel. The mouth feel is thick. Overall its a A+

hardly no foam, a small light-brown creamy head. very dark but clearly brown body. smells mostly coffee with malt adding a fresh and fruity touch to it. creamy very bitter taste, reminding of coffee and dark chocolate. the bitterness doesnt leave you in the aftertaste but still balanced and pleasant.. the high alcohol rate is covered nicely in the beginning but hits you in the face later on. maybe a bit too bitter but otherwise great taste.

Nice dark color and a very malty aroma. It has a creamy body and a strong, unsubtle, dark roasted malt flavor. It has a more hoppy finish than most other Stouts I’ve had, but that suits me just fine. All around an excellent stout.
