Jul 22, 2005 Sampled from brewery sealed growler: Pours a thick, dark, nearly opaque with a puffy, thinly-lacing tan head. Aroma is dry, roasty and has some coffee presence with a touch of earthy caramel. Body starts smooth, but thin and dry-roasty with hints of caramel chocolate flavor. Not sweet or creamy enough for an oatmeal stout.

Apr 30, 2007 My Bottom Line:
Creamy chocolate spreads onto the coffee roastiness, as oatmeal adds some crunch and chewiness. A very good Stout from this fine Long Island brewery.
Further Personal Perceptions:
-A veil of foam tops the opaque blackness.
-The low hoppiness is appropriate, letting the glorious malts show themselves.
-The cask mouthfeel suits this beer perfectly, ensuring maximum drinkability.
On cask at Mahar’s, in Albany.

Apr 2, 2006 Updated: May 14, 2006Jess’s favourite. On tap at the brewery. Dark black beer with a thick off-white head. Sweet chocolatey aroma, some root beer herbal character as well. Flavour is quite tasty, chicory, chocolate with a creamy oatmealy character as well. Long roasty finish. Light fruitiness as well. A solid and tasty beer.

Apr 7, 2004 On tap - David Copperfields NYC. Almost black beer with some head but little lacing. Appetizing licquorice aroma. Pleasant typical oatmeal stout taste, however a little thin. (I didn't know it was only 4.5% at the time of drinking which would explain its lack of substance). Nevertheless a very drinkable beer.

Aug 28, 2005 Tap at brewery. Poured black with a small tan head. Aroma and flavor of roasted malt, black cofee, and light notes of chocolate. Mouthfeel is more crisp and less smooth than I would expect from oatmeal.
