    Espresso all the way! Chocolate was just too intense for me and not really what I was expecting. Still need to try Oak Aged and Belgian.

    Oak Aged from 2010. 3 years on that beer is absolute perfection.

    Espresso is my favorite of the standards, but whiskey aged chocolate yeti is in my all time top ten.

    Bretty Yeti is terrible. I don't wish that soy sauce funk bomb on anyone.

    Was able to get two bottles of chocolate yeti last summer that my buddy had brought back from Denver. They were fantastic I drank one right away and aged the other one for 9 months

    Haven't had the Chocolate Yeti, but the Espresso Yeti is heavenly.

    Why would you go and ruin perfectly good yeti?

    Espresso Oak Yeti with a year on it is about as perfect as one beer can get. I like it better than I liked BCBS FWIW.

    Just out of curiosity, what is the difference between the Barrel Aged and the Oak Aged? Is Barrel Aged specifically in bourbon barrels and the Oak Aged is just unused oak barrels?

    Anyways, the only ones I haven't had are the Belgian and the Barrel Aged, but out of the ones I have had the Oak Aged Yeti w/ 2 years on it on draft was absolutely superb! The Chocolate and Coffee versions are definitely quite good as well, and maybe after 2 years of aging they would be better than the vintage Oak Aged, but I haven't had them w/ that much age on them (but I did have them side by side w/ the vintage Oak Aged).

    Chocolate for me. That cayenne pepper in the finish is just awesome.

    I have only had regular yeti because they know longer distribute to CT. It is amazing. I have two bottles that are 2 years old in my fridge.

    Espresso Oak aged yeti is tops for me. Chocolate one is a close 2nd.

    I'm going to have to seek out the barrel aged one now.
