Great Divide Belgian Style Yeti Imperial Stout

From Great Divide – Belgian Style Yeti is a delicious new blend of brewing traditions–all the malt-driven roastiness of our Yeti Imperial Stout with characteristic spice and fruit notes imparted by our special Belgian yeast strain. Belgian Style Yeti is a one-of-a-kind beer as mysterious as the mythical creature himself. Impossible? See for yourself; you’ll be a believer, too.

Great Divide Brewing – Great Divide Belgian Style Yeti Imperial Stout – On tap poured into a goblet. 9.5% abv.

Appearance: Pours a viscous dark brown with a creamy tan head.

Aroma: Chocolaty roast and faint but apparent spicy yeast.

Taste: Big dark chocolate roast. So very close to all the other variants of Yeti, you really don’t pick up a Belgian yeast profile.

Mouthfeel: Creamy, full bodied.

Overall: As mentioned, the yeast took a back seat to the monstrous roasted malt profile this beer shows in all it’s variations. With that said, this is very tasty, and might develop more character with a year or two on it.
