    Just picked up a bottle of Espresso and a bottle of Chocolate. Never had either before and really looking forward to it. I'm guessing I'll prefer espresso because I tend to prefer coffee stouts over chocolate stouts, but we'll see! I really want to mix them!

    As a side story, Oak Aged Yeti was my first "WOW!" moment at my first beer fest.

    BA Yeti, though its on a different level than the rest. Otherwise, if chocolate is the one that has cayenne in it then that one be my second favorite. Loved the spice in the back of the throat at the end of the sip.

    Would be nice if they made enough for it to travel but I won't hold my breath.

    Yeah hands down. I've never had the barrel aged version, (at 30 bucks its not that tempting.) but espresso is my favorite Great divide beer and one of my favorite stouts period. Soooo roasty

    I wonder why the infection? I've heard about that being a problem for some of their rare releases lately. Hope they get that under control.

    I enjoy all of the Yeti's, but the Belgian is my least favorite, I just think it lacks the intensity and flavor that the other ones have. I also heard a rumor that ther will be a new yeti coming out fairly soon....

    Actually, very much enjoyed Belgian Yetiskoot. It differed from the mold, while adding something certainly special via the yeast.

    I think this summer I'm going to see about picking up the whole lineup and having a tasting with a few friends.

    Regular, Oak Aged, Chocolate, Espresso, Belgian, and (if I can find it), Barrel Aged.

    Should be fun!

    Chocolate, and I'm drinking one as I type this. I haven't had BA, as it never makes it to Indiana. All other variations are quite tasty as well, with the standard Yeti being my go-to no-frills RIS. Hard to beat at $7 a bomber/$14 a 4 pk.

    This thread made me thirsty and inspired me to stock up a bit.

    Oak aged Yeti by a nose over Chocolate and Regular. Since GD pulled out of Michigan, I haven't been able to find the others.

    Espresso is leaps and bounds the best in my opinion!
