Great Divide Espresso Oak Aged Yeti Imperial Stout

What the fuck is going on brew lovers? This beer, that's what's going on. Let me just get straight to it.

Pours black like any normal Imperial stout with a full, tan head that is very supple and it had wonderful lacing. The nose was full of espresso and coffee with a heap of chocolate and caramel thrown in for good measure. The taste was full of the same stuff - chocolate and coffee. Essentially, it's fucking fantastic. It had a wonderful sweet/bitter combination. The texture was smooth as silk with no speedbumps anywhere. This beer is 9.5%, but you would never know it. It also had no bad aftertaste - as long as you don't consider coffee bad.

Easily one of the best beers I've had in a while. I want to just drink this in the morning instead of my coffee. If you like Imperials, get this - you won't be disappointed.
