From the salt mines to the confectioner’s kitchen, Yeti was not afraid to get its hands dirty in the concocting of Salted Caramel Yeti Imperial Stout. Employing a salted caramel chocolate tea blend and kosher salt, this release features massive caramel aroma and flavor with a healthy hint of chocolate. Sweet yet balanced with a soft mouthfeel, Yeti gives it the chef’s kiss.

L: Pours a rich hickory, forming a thin tan head. Dissipates fairly quickly, with minimal lacing but a faint effervescent retention. Held to the light, this beer has a thick, impenetrable mocha hue.
S: Chocolate, caramel dominate. Hints of coffee, malts; smells like candy.
T: As advertised - loads of salted caramel, coffee, and roasted malts. Mellows out into dark chocolate.
F: Medium-bodied. Chewy mouthfeel, moderate carbonation.
O: Not my thing. The flavor is just too much salted caramel, not enough balance. Most Yetis are solid if not spectacular; this is a let-down.

From an oversized aluminum can, this beer is obsidian in color with a thick brownish-tan head. Massive chocolate and caramelized sugar aromas leap from the glass. It smells like a high-quality chocolate-caramel candy bar. The taste has a luxurious sweetness in the foretaste...chocolate and caramel flavors are intense. There are dark roast grain notes and dark chocolate as well, and the finish has a definite salted caramel flavor. It delivers that taste as advertised. Thick, heavy, and mouth-coating in body. At times, it has an pleasant oily fullness. Wow. This is like a liquid candy bar. It is an utterly impressive brew.

Pours an effervescent ebony with a thumb+ of mocha colored head. Above average head retention & lacing
S: Coffee, cocoa, caramel
T: Follows the nose, some dryness/roastyness as well up front, plus the advertised saltiness. Salted caramel, dryness, & coffee as this beer warms up, along with cocoa & dark chocolate. Finishes with a little dryness, lovely salted caramel & a kiss of dark chocolate
MF: Pretty chewy, firm carbonation. Carbonation smooths out as this beer warms up, warming
I really enjoyed this, would happily buy this again. If everything was on par with the taste, this would be an A+ beer

Slightly sweet mostly roasty from the base beer with an almost peanut brittle finish. Definitely has a salted caramel vibe going not as sweet as expected but good.
