Great Divide Oak Aged Yeti

Beer-a-Day #299Great Divide Oak Aged Yeti

…Yeti Imperial Stout’s sophisticated sibling. They may be from the same clan, but they have entirely different personalities. Oak aging gives a subtle vanilla character, rounding out Yeti’s intense roastiness and huge hoppy nature. Who says you can’t tame a Yeti?  (9.5% ABV)

Pours as dark and thick as used engine oil; the head looks like a chocolate milkshake. Lots of nice roastiness with some vanilla in the aroma. You can really taste the oak. That’s some good stuff.

“Imposing” and “Untamed” trumpets the label.

Pours an inky brown with a dark brown head. Caramel and a bit of coffee in the aroma. It smells rich. Nice roasted flavor with a surprising amount of bitterness at the end. I really like this. This will certainly become a regular visitor.
