Traditionally, Imperial Stouts, the biggest and boldest of all stouts, were brewed with massive amounts of roasted malts and hops, resulting in a velvety smooth but robust beer characterized by high alcohol content and extremely high hop bitterness. Meeting the challenge of this aggressive, challenging beer style, 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.

Pitch black with an average sized, quite dense light brown head that shows nice retention and excellent lacing. Average intensity in the aroma. Caramel and roasted malts, coffee, slight chocolate, maybe a hint of red fruits. Taste is dominated by roasted malts and burnt caramel, with notes of coffee and cholocate in the background. Finishes rather dry with a highly bitter, resinous hoppy note. Very sweet, but even more bitter, expecially in the finish. Burnt caramel possibly too assertive. Dense bodied with average carbonation, mouthfilling. Definitely an intense beer, maybe not much more than that though.

Can from Tilt in Birmingham. Pours black with a dirty tan head. Aroma is dark chocolate, molasses, black treacle, coffee and a little marshmallow sweetness. Taste is a lovely bitter dark chocolate, lots of roast malt, some coconut and marshmallow and some boozinrss just to balance the sweetness out with a nice smooth finish. A great Impy Stout.

Bottle from the LCBO. Almost pitch black with a large fluffy dark brown head that hangs around and leaves tight lace. Nose is coffee, dark chocolate, roast, light vanilla, some dark fruit, caramel, earth, some light pine. Starts with a light+ sweet caramel before a medium+ coffee, chocolate and earthy hop bitterness kciks in. Mouth is full and creamy with average carbonation and a dry roasty finish. Quite warming with the alcohol well integrated. Nice. 9/5/8+/4/18

Nice that one of the veteran stalwarts of the style holds up so well, even in its bare-bones, base recipe form. Big, giant, massive burnt coffee and chocolate front, layered on top of modest anise, caramel, and dried black cherry notes, set against a formidable bitter hop backbone and a clingy, espresso-tinged fade. Sweet without being sugary, thick and rich with just the slightest bit of char creeping into the fade. Pours a syrupy black with a thick brown head and heavy lacing. Chocolate, caramel, and java in the nose. Gooey, thick texture has just a smidge of prickly alcohol heat. Tasty pint.
