Pours a solid black with a big tan head that lingers and laces.

Smells of milk chocolate, coffee, alcohol, hop citrus, roast, and some grapefruit notes. Quite pleasant and interesting.

Taste is up-front sweetness with a grapefruit hop character that moves into a creamy sweetness and ends on a bitter roasted and hop note. It has a lingering finish of coffee...nice.

Full bodied, creamy, smooth, with just a hint of alcohol kick.

I've been drinking Yeti for a while now...for my money and availability, it's hard to beat.

Yeti has a magnificent obsidian color with a voluminous mocha colored head. Tons of lacing left on the glass. The aroma draws comparisons to bakers chocolate, new leather, port wine, and creamy milk. To my delight, the flavor is very chocolatey, along with some earthy wood and tobacco notes. Surprisingly a fair amount of hops are included in the mixture. The finish is tart and bitter. I appreciate the heavy, velvety mouthfeel, and the warming sensation of the high ABV. Definitely a must try when in the mood for a bold RIS.

A: Pours a deep pitch black with a dark khaki colored head. The foam is thin, and fades fairly quickly, leaving a nice bubbly film across the top of the beer.

S: The nose is caramel, milk chocolate, roast, slight raisin, and a touch of alcohol. This beer smells great.

T: It starts out sweet and smooth with malt, chocolate, and caramel. The roast and raisins come on in the middle of the beer, and in the finish I get a touch of slight bittering hops and some alcohol kick.

M: Full bodied beer. It's sweet and coating to start, slides off the palate well, and doesn't leaving much of a lingering impression. This is an insanely drinkable Russian Imperial Stout, if there is such a thing.

O: Great beer. It holds it's own against some of the other beers of the style. Like I mentioned earlier, this is an incredibly drinkable stout. I will return to this beer often in the future.
