Dark brown with a moderate light tan head. Aromas of husky grain and dark chocolate. Not a real strong scent. Quite dry throughout. Not as smooth as many oatmeals. Some light oatmeal and mild dark malts in the middle. Some light lactic qualities seek in here and there. Dry cocoa finish and linger. Easy to drink, but nothing too exciting.

Dark pour with a brown crown of deliciousness. I have to thank Optigon again for this, that dude is one hell of a trader. I would never have tried an oatmeal stout otherwise. I loved this brew. Roasted malt, chocolate, lingering flavor on the palate and not overly thick as you would think. Very good.

pour was dark with a very dark brown head. Aroma was of chocolate, coffee, and dark roasted malt. Flavor was coffee dominated melding well with light chocolate, malt, and a light bitterness. Well blended. Good. May buy again.

Bottle from fiver29. Poured dark brown color with average frothy brown head that mostly lasted with good lacing. Moderate toasted chocolate malty aroma. Medium body with a smooth texture. Moderate toasted chocolate flavor with an average bittersweet finish of moderate duration. Good brew.

Bottle. Aroma is oats, dark roast. Opaque with a big cola colored head. Flavor is light, dominantly charred oat and malts. Light and thin in the mouth.

Pours black with a light tan head. Has a nice aroma that has smooth roasty notes behind a slightly sweet hop smell. Light to medium mouthfeel has a silky smooth feel. Taste is a light roast with a creamy flavor. Overall this is just a ok brew. It was nice to try it.
