12 oz. can, pours black with a small tan head. Nose is much less roasty than regular Yeti, with much more sweetened coffee, a touch of cocoa, and light roast. Flavour is full of rich dark roast coffee, moderate sweetness that subdues the roast, and a touch of dark chocolate. I definitely prefer regular Yeti’s roast and lower sweetness level, but I’m digging the sweet coffee here. Excellent.

Clear gold colour, smallish head of foam, minimal lacing.

Big citrus grapefruit smell, tropical fruit, some alcohol, caramel malt sweetness.

Taste is nice grapefruit bitterness, caramel malt sweetness, some tropical fruitiness, good balance. Very sip worthy.

Fullish mouthfeel, excellent Imperial IPA.

Updated. Canned March 21st 2025.

Bomber from the lcbo. Slightest but if haze, with a large white head. Aroma is a blast of subtly sweet rhubard. Tangy lemon and sweet strawberry. Of the dozen if strawberry rhubarb beers I've had this is easily the first one to actually nail the profile of a strawberry rhubarb pie. Mouth feel is spot on, with a great carb. The finish is tart, but also softly sweet. Hints of citrus but mostly just a fantastic combo of the rhubarb sweetneed by the strawberries. Incredibly easy drinking, well balanced, just the ultimate summer beer.

Hazy yellow pour, small white head. Sharp, acidic nose, lots wine like qualities. Tropical fruits, pale bready malts, and some strong yeasty esters. Perfect mouth feel and body. The finish is medium bitter, lots of white wine acidity, and fruity hops. Dangerously drinkable for an 8.2% beer.

Motor oil pour, big thick brown head, sticky lacing. Deeeeeep aroma of espresso, very dark smokey espresso. Lots of cocoa nibs, even some sweet milk chocolate, and quite a bit of roasty burnt malt. The flavor is more of the same but the oak really comes through in light smokey woody vanilla in the finish with a very dry bitter kick.

Dark red murky pour, with an off white head. Aroma of sour raspberries, and sme sweet jam. Flavor is more of the same with a light refreshing tartness. Body is nice, and the carbonation is spot on. Refreshing and well made.

great golden pour with a frothy white head. Aroma is quite grainy, fresh bread, and some hops, with a typical belgian yeastiness.the flavor seems harsh, and unbalanced. Metalic hops, and more grains i’m not a fan.
