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.

Strong Coffee and Malt - I really like this flavor - very similar to the Bourbon Barrel Aged Oatmeal - (I will have to try the two at the same time to compare) I think I liked the flavor of the Bourbon Aged better. This is a good brew

Mild burnt/roast malt, chocolate, coffee....all fairly subdued. The body is black with a mocha colored, thin head. Fairly strong coffee, mild chocolate. Sustained roastiness through the whole flavor range. Not a wower, but not at all a bad beer.

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.
