    BA Yeti is my favorite. Never did open an infected bottle. Espresso and Chocolate are awesome as well. BA Chocolate Yeti was also quite good.

    Hopefully they release the Jim Beam Barrel Aged Chocolate Yeti for the summer season. One of the best beers I have ever had.

    Yes that is the gist, it is more oak flavor than most oak aged beers I have had which can be good depending on your taste. I thought the barrel aged was great but I am starting to remember that the original is why I posted this thread to begin with -it is such a great beer!

    Of what I've had....
    Regular very good
    Oaked eh....ok
    Espresso FUCKING AMAZING
    Chocolate a total pass, honestly bad
    Belgian very interesting/unique but not my thing.

    Would LOVE to try barrel but I don't see being able to get it without selling my soul.

    Last night we cracked an old label original Yeti. Not sure when it was from, but it was definitely before 2008. We heard angels singing as we opened and drank it...

    Barrel-aged. I think Yeti is a very overrated stout, like most beers by Great Divide. But the barrel-aged version truly is great.

    I really wish Great Divide distributed to New Hampshire. All of it sounds great.

    BA Yeti has been my favorite. Can't go wrong with any of them though! Well... except the Belgian... but that's just because I generally don't like Belgians.

    Pretty sure it's got to be chocolate - espresso left a little more to be desired. With years though, any of these is bound to treat you right.

    I like the espresso best. Can't wait to see what the TBD yeti is posted on their website.
