Great Divide Chai Yeti
Imperial Stout - 9.5% ABV Pete Really rich, dark, roasty stout. I don't really get much chai flavor, but it's quite delicious, just like all the others. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |

Great Divide Chocolate Cherry Yeti
Imperial Stout - 9.5% ABV Pete Rich, delicious stout with some subtle fruit flavor, though I couldn't pinpoint cherry. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |

Great Divide Chocolate Oak Aged Yeti
Imperial Stout - 9.5% ABV Pete This is incredible. It is extremely rich, and you definitely taste chocolate. I also tasted coffee, but that may just be my brain associating this type of beer along with the bitterness with coffee, as there is definitely a noticeable bitter background to the richness. It has a nice head too, leaving you with a chocolate milk mustache. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |

Great Divide Colette Farmhouse Ale
Saison - 7.3% ABV Pete This is very light in color, and a bit light in flavor. You can still taste a little bit of the flavor of a saison, but I wanted more. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Great Divide Denver Pale Ale
Pale Ale - 5% ABV Pete Great hoppy pale ale. It has a very specific flavor that's different from most beers, and it's quite good, but I can't quite put my finger on it. Maybe you can. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Great Divide Espresso Oak Aged Yeti
Imperial Stout - 9.5% ABV Pete As usual, I can't put any knocks on this imperial stout. It will overpower your taste buds in a great way. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |

Great Divide Hades
Belgian Strong Pale Ale - 7.8% ABV Pete This one is straight to the point. Some good citrusy flavors, plus extra bonus points for being very strong and still coming in a normal-priced 6-pack. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Great Divide Hibernation Ale
Old Ale (Winter) - 8.7% ABV Pete It's really hard to put a finger on this one, as there's a great depth of flavor. The best I can do to describe it is say it's like a complex brown ale with a hint of hops. It also happens to be pretty damn strong. Whatever it is, it's delicious. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
|
Great Divide Hoss Oktoberfest Lager
Märzen - 6.2% ABV Pete Damn good malty beer that's quite easy to drink. I like this more than most of the style. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Great Divide Hoss Rye Lager
Rye Lager - 6.2% ABV Pete I don't really know what to say about this one. It didn't taste very good, the rye flavor wasn't strong enough to balance the strange sweetness that it had, but I managed to put a bunch of them down without really noticing. Ratings: Pete - 3 Shyoh's |
|
Great Divide Nadia Kali
Saison - 6.3% ABV Pete This is definitely a good saison. I don't really notice hibiscus, but I'm not sure I would know I was tasting it anyway. Good beer, but definitely not worth paying the extra for it ($16 for a 4-pack vs. a typical $10-12 6-pack at the same store). Ratings: Pete - 3 Shyoh's |

Great Divide Nomad
Czech Pilsner - 5.4% ABV Pete This beer isn't all that great. I spent a weekend in Prague, so I know what Czech pilsners are supposed to taste like. It seems like a style that American craft breweries can't quite get a grip on. Maybe it's because it's supposed to be pretty low in flavor, and we just can't handle that. Ratings: Pete - 3 Shyoh's |
|
Great Divide Oatmeal Yeti
Imperial Stout - 9.5% ABV Pete This isn't as good as the original or the espresso version, but it's still pretty great. It is extremely rich and creamy, with a definite hint of bitter in there. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Great Divide Orabelle
Tripel - 8.3% ABV Pete This is a solid tripel. I love the style and like the beer within the style. Edit: I had this again, and it was incredible. I don't know why I didn't go nuts for it the first time. Different glasses, probably made a difference. It's a little spicier than your typical tripel. Just buy it. Ratings: Pete - 7 Shyoh's |
|
Great Divide Titan IPA
IPA - 7.1% ABV Pete This has a subtle sweetness going down, but it is still dominated by the bitterness from the hops. You must love hops to enjoy this one. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
|
Great Divide Velvet Yeti
Stout - 5% ABV Pete This is a great, if relatively simple, stout. It doesn't have a ton of flavor (like many of the other yetis on this page), but it is extremely smooth and has a great head. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Great Divide Wild Raspberry Ale
Fruit Beer - 5.6% ABV Pete The best thing I can say for this beer was that I was able to force 2 of them down. Ratings: Pete - 2 Shyoh's |
|
Great Divide Yeti
Imperial Stout - 9.5% ABV Pete This is an outstanding imperial stout. It is strong, dark, rich, and a little bitter. No complaints here. Ratings: Pete - 6 Shyoh's |
