A really nice and tasty impy. Quite easy drinkable also. But I did not get that chai feeling. Mild pleasant spiced.
Raven black with a fine beige head. Nice aroma with a pleasant intensity. Nice sniffer. Full body with a mellow carbonation level. Balanced sweetness. Spices, chocolate, espresso and some roast in the flavor. Yummi.

Pours black into a tulip. Mocha head with little retention recedes to nothing. Chocolate and sweet tea aromas. Soft with chocolate, vanilla and milk tea upfront turning to lasting dank resin in the lasting finish.

Tap st Roor, Oslo, 14th Febraury 18. Black as obvious. Aroma is chocolate, roast, caramel. Taste is smooth as you like, bitter chocolate, thank fully not too much spice and chai, but enough to be interesting. Lovely gear.

Bottle, thanks Eddan. Black with a small tan head. Aroma of roasted malt, dark bread, light cinnamon and ginger. The same in the taste. Kind of smooth.

Flaska från SB. Tjockt kolsvart med riktigt tjusigt mörkbrunt, krämigt skum som ligger kvar länge. Både i doft och smak så är det mindre av chai-kryddorna än väntat. Grundölen är fortfarande i förgrunden med tydligt rostade och kärva toner med inslag av råglimpa och pumpernickel. Det går att ana kanelen och kardemumman, men främst känns pepparn av, men då främst i dess fruktighet. Även muskoten är framträdande och växer till sig något. I jämförelse med vanliga Yetin är här även mycket mer av vanilj, choklad och de något mer nötiga tonerna liksom en viss sötma som balanserar upp de annars väldigt kärva och råa tonerna som dominerar. Beskan är dock kvar och växer till sig snyggt i slutet, alldeles jämsides de lite grönare tonerna från pepparn. Överlag skulle jag fortfarande säga att det är en något lättare och mildare variant av Yetin, som bjuder på lite extra tillskott från kryddorna. Gott hur som!

Bomber from CraftShaft. Pours dark brown with a tan head. Aroma of spice, dark sweet malt and a hint of chocolate. Nice aroma. Med + body. Flavor is mixed spice, something like rice, sweet dark malt, coffee and chocolate. Quite nice. Goes well with homemade chocolate chip cookie!
