Great Divide Brewery
Espresso Oak Aged Yeti
Stout/Porter
9.5% ABV
JT's Score: 92/100
Poured from a 22 oz bomber into a 20oz wide mouth mug. I had to dump the beer into the mug for the final 1/3 to get a head to form because of the high ABV. Lacing was non-existent. Color was deep, deep brown with a light brown head, very nice looking. Lots of malt for the aroma, with a slight coffee (as to be expected) and chocolate smell. Lovely... As a coffee lover, this brew is fantastic. The espresso notes hit right away, mild bitterness for a stout, with a slight chocolate flavoring. The malt flavoring is predominant but in a very balanced way. The astertaste was pleasant and diminshed quickly leaving me wanting to sip the beer again anad again. This is probably now one of my favorite stout styles, and the ABV gives a nice bang for the buck.
