Yeti bottled on May 17th, 2010. Tons of silky smooth chocolate, roasted coffee, leather and tobacco in this. Also some dark cherry on the mid palate which I never tasted in a fresh bottle.

I should mention the peanut/almond notes in this beer as well. Very nice stuff.

Buy it and wait until 12/12/12 to drink it. that is the general Idea of the Vertical series. You kinda need a year before to compare with. This December will be the first year that I have 2 bottles to compare- a 2011 and 2010

Hell, buy 2 and drink one halfway through.

Yes I can tell you I had a small pour from a friends bottle, and I hated it. Tasted like bubblegum, spice, and chile with some hops. Not my thing at all. Pretty sure they brew 11.11.11 with chiles and lots of spices..

Yes it was! Good malt/ hop balance. Thanks Chip! (Walking down to my bar for the Sisyphus next...)

Glad you liked the Furious! I wish I could just rig up an IV of that stuff.
