I don't even know how many versions of the Yeti Great Divide has. It's gotta be their most popular beer/series of beers. Today I am writing about the Chocolate Yeti that I am imbibing on as I write this at Freshcraft. It's a stout, of course, with great flavors right off the bat. Sticky as all hell with plenty of sweetness that surrounds your mouth. Great hits of vanilla as well. Almost Rocky Road-ish. The color is deep deep deep with a head that rivals a dark milk shake. It's a bit boozy on the nose but certainly not on the taste. Black licorice comes through as well which is fairly typical of bigger stouts. Damn thick too which leaves a killer slick/coating all over the mouth. Including that sticky lip thing I am always mentioning. As it gets a bit warmer some wonderful coffe flavors are present. Which goes great with the chocolate malt. A damn fine beer. But a mood beer for me. I am not always in the mood for something so rich and dark. And this falls in this category. Good on ya Great Divide.
cheers
