8/8/08 From the bottle. Aroma is roast and light black malt dominated by creamy sweetness. Appearance is black with a well maintained cream colored head. Flavor is sweet, creamy malt forward with lots of roast and a sourness in the finish that does not seem to come from the black malt. Mouthfeel is full bodied, with strong grainy texture and medium carb feel. Overall, quite good, and just seems a little light on some of the classic oatmeal creaminess and slickness.

Dark brown with a tight tan head. Sweet sour toasted oatmeal aroma with black licorice. Medium body. Flavor is again sweet sour black licorice with oat bran and chocolate. A little too much licorice here.

12oz bottle from BevMo Mission Valley. Pours black with a small beige head that disappears quickly. Nose of dark berry and pit fruits. Flavor was of coffee and toasted malts with some chocolate.

Black color with an average tan head. Aroma is sweetlike oatmeal cookies and chocolate. Taste is of oats as well. not very complex and a little weak. Body is thin.

Oatmeal stout - Deep black body with a moderate brown head. Standard roasted malt with some light coffee and chocolate notes. A bit of oatmeal present but not in any great quantity. Fair drink.
