This unique version of our monstrous Yeti Imperial Stout is aged for at least twelve months in whiskey barrels. The spirited aging process produces a hugely complex but mellowed Yeti, with its signature roasted flavors, hints of vanilla and oak, and a whiskeyed finish.

Wood, prune, coffee, soil, horehound nose. Black, medium beige head. Oak, prune, espresso. Full body, easy carbonation. Not my favorite Yeti.

Bottle bought in San Diego in 2017. (vintage 2016) Black with a small tan head. Aroma of dark malt, coffee, whisky and some oak. The same in the taste. The body was full and the finish long. A tasty one.

Taster shared with George. Appearance: very dark brown with a beige head. Aroma: very nice bourbon character with some berries notes. Taste: along the same lines with roasted malt bitterness. Overall: good Russian BBA IS.

Flaska från SB. Kolsvart med tjusigt krämig mörkbrun skumpuck. I doften riktigt kärva old school impy-toner av askfat, tjärpastill, kaffesump, läder och chark. Något längre bak även toffee, choklad, ek, whiskey och avkok från enbärsris. Något större kropp med en riktigt len munkänsla. Inte alls så tydlig alkoholhetta och whiskey-karaktär som väntat, om än tydlig fatkaraktär överlag. I smaken samma kärva toner i förgrunden som i doften. Whiskeyn något mer framträdande, men inte supermarkant. Ganska tydliga toner av ekfatet och viss typisk kokos/vanilj-ton. Stor beska och hårt rostade/kärva toner. Ändå inte så kaxig som väntat. Mycket gott

From a bottle, no doubt picked up in Colorado on the 17 trip. Listed at 12.5 abv on the bottle. Virtually black with a foamy, light brown head that fades to a whispy, creamy layering that’s more lacing than crown. Aroma is full of barrel but heavy with chocolate and vanilla too, which is a good thing since I like the barreled beers balanced. The taste, however, is barrel-driven, full of raw whisky, oak and alcohol burn. Would like to see a little more of the underlying brew with its inviting toffee and molasses sweetness. Heavy body, soft carbonation. Works as a digestif.
