Wow, black brew with a light brown head Beautiful cascading show lasts a few minutes leaving behind heavy lacing pattern. Chocolate aroma, roasted notes Semi sweet, dry roasted chocolate flavor this brew is delicious and satisfying. Great warmth in the chest.

UPDATED: MAY 10, 2008 ABV: 9.5% RateBeer rating: 99 Calories: estimated at 400C Volume: 22 fl oz Glass: small snifter Purchased at: Joe Canal’s, Lawrenceville, NJ Price: $7.29 Consumed at: home First Impression: Aroma is chocolate, caramel, and espresso. Dark roasted notes. Aroma is simply amazing. Fills the room. Visuals are an oily black with a tan head that starts thick but dissipates quickly to a wispy film. There is no light penetrating - sucks you in. Taste is its greatest feature, with fuller chocolate notes than many others. Peppery. Reminds me of other favorite chocolate stouts, like Brooklyn’s. It is rich, deep, and satisfying - well balanced, and 9.5% is hidden expertly. Palate is sudsy, satin, and luxurious. This is worthy of very high praise. Second Impression: One of my favorites. I have to start getting a hold of some more Great Divide brews - I hardly noticed them before. There’s something about the more subtle notes that put this brew slightly above the others in its class. Aroma: 10 out of 10 Visuals: 5 out of 5 Taste: 10 out of 10 Palate: 5 out of 5 Overall: 20 out of 20. I think this is my perfect beer.

330ml Bottle. Full marks, paradise in a beer. Aromas of chocolate, liquorice, vanilla, and caramel. Taste is sweet and bitter, with extremely long length. Palate is creamy, and full bodied. Black, with a frothy off-white head.

22oz. Pours a very insanely deep black, brown thin head with very good retention, decent amount of lacing. Smells slightly of cherry, strong roast grain, and coffee. Very grainy flavor, with strong roast, some of the cherry hints. Low carbonation, big bold body, slightly slick texture.

Yummo! Take the best of a great stout/porter and mix it with a hoppy IPA and you get this beer. Dark chocolate flavors abound with HUGE hoppiness. AMAZING. Period!

One of my favorite beers of all time. Unfortunately, I cannot seem to find any of Great Divide’s other beers in my area. For anyone who has never had this one, it will seem like a joke at first taste. It is absolutely intense and it makes Corona lovers sick. It pours a rich dark black with a dark orange head. This is the beer I compare all others to. A must drink!

If you told me you could only drink one beer for the res of your life, I would feel bad for you, then I would tell you Yeti stout should be your beer, and I wouldn’t feel that bad anymore. This is the most complex beer that I have ever loved. Sure I have had more complex beers (alesmith speedway stout, Founders breakfast stout) but they didn’t quite pull it off. Yeti Pulled it off completely. I could try to describe the aroma the flavor and yadda yadda yadda, but I won’t insult the beer. Just take my word for it if your pallet can handle malty hoppy caramely insanity then this beer will not disappoint you.

This beer is one of my favorite stout beers. This is what all stout beers should be based on. Perfectly balanced and a great ABV.

Yeti kaatuu lasiin mudostaen mustan nesteen ja moccavaahdon luoman herkullisen näköisen kokonaisuuden. Tuoksukin on rautaa. Siinä on vaniljaa, puuta, hedelmäisyyttä, hieman kahvia ja suklaata. Maku jatkaa siitä mihin ulkonäkö ja tuoksu jäivät. Maussa on selkeästi greippiä, mikä on ainakin minulle yllätys. Muut maut ovat suklaa, kahvi ja paahtunut mallas. Suutuntuma on pehmeä ja liukas. Vappuviikonloppu on vasta aluillaan ja jo nyt tuli iso jytky.

Nera, molto nera. Schiuma marrone e da subito i classici sentori di una vera imperial stout, malto tostato e caramello. Assaggiata sembra di mettersi in bocca un cucchiaio di polvere di caffè e cacao, con un finale amaro per concludere in bellezza. Birra senza mezzi termini, dal corpo deciso e aggressivo. Per veri amanti delle imperial stout. Dopo aver bevuto questa difficilmente ne troverete altre allo stesso livello.
