19.3 oz. can, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma brings out lots of cinnamon upfront, with lactose and vanilla drowning out the roast base. Flavour is rich, with lots of lactose and cinnamon in good combination, accentuated by vanilla and a hearty roast character. Low carb, with plenty of sweetness and cinnamon character on the finish. Tasty but a shadow of the base beer.

Can from H-E-B-, Bastrop, TX. Cloudy black, big, stable, frothy, beige head. Aroma of clove, burnt cinnamon, brownie, coffee roast, nutmeg, prune, chocolate powder. Taste has sweet fig & prune in a malt body of brownie, dark chocolate & ground hazelnut, surrounded by bitter coffee & spices. Herbal hoppy finish with more (flavoured) coffee, spices and well-hidden liqueur-like alcohol. Full body, oily texture, soft carbonation. Base beer is still there and spices are elegantly added - good!

Missing review I came across from 31.12.2015 off white thick creamy head stayed all the way on a near black still body. Prune, coffee brown sugar aroma with a hint of rum. Beautifully smooth on the palate, soft dark fruits, brown sugar, strong coffee tastes - so much on taste buds. What a fantastic beer & totally recommend.

Can/Fest. A- Malty, caramel. A- Copper color, clear liquid, off white head. T- Malty, caramel, mild spice. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, balanced finish. O- Malty and honestly a lot of complex flavors on the palate but I can't quite place them. Not sure how it took me so long to have this beer.

Can/Fest. A- Gingerbread, chocolate. A- Black color, black liquid, minimal head. T- Gingerbread cookie, chocolate. P- Full body, average texture, average carbonation, balanced finish. O- Ginger always seems to overtake any beer but the Yeti is brute enough to tame it. Gingerbread cookie is about all you get but it's all you need. Another solid variant.
