| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jul 30, 2006 Pours a black color with a thin brown head. Aroma is of chocolate, caramel, roasted malts, coffee, and sweet malts. Flavor is strong of chocolate, coffe, molasses, and roated malts that give way to the sweet malts and oats. Slightly bitter and dry finish. Not bad but not that good either. xav33 (313), Midland, MI, Michigan, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 14/20 | Jul 30, 2006 Breckenridge Oatmeal Stout
12 0z bottle
Bottled 11/05, livered 07/06
Semi aggressive pour in a tulip glass
Poured dark, with reddish copper rim, with light head that died disappointly quick in a few lonely surface bubbles.
Smelt of roasted coffee and slight creamy lactic maltiness
Taste begins with short semi-sweet caramel hints suddenly peaking into smokiness and quickly dying on the palate to leave an awkward bitterness as the malty sweetness dies too early. Mouthfeel was overly light and effervescent for a serious stout, but results in a good summer quencher stout.
Overall I was attracted by its dark color but was disappointed in its light mouthfeel and smell despite an overall pleasant taste.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 28, 2006 Pours black with a small dark tan head. Aroma of chocolate, coffee and roasted malt. Too bad most of the same flavor doesnt come through in the taste. A bit watered down. Nice smoothness though. kramer (2515), Sunbury, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 27, 2006 12 oz bottle, via Secret Santa PhillyBeer2112. Pours a clear black colored body with some mahogany edges under a creamy dark brown head. Aroma is mostly burnt and roasted malts. Some hints of chocolate, chalk, and oats. Flavor is burnt malt up front with some charcoal astringency on the finish. Some bitter chocolate and chalk as well. Mouthfeel is fairly thin with moderate fine carbonation. Dry and astringent on the finish. This wasn’t bad, but I didn’t get much oat character out of it in the flavor or the body, it was fairly enjoyable though.
