zappafan99 (331), Rock Hill, South Carolina, USA May 19, 2008 Updated: Jul 4, 2008 Nearly opaque black..thin head. Aroma..choc, espresso, roasted malt. Nice flavors.. don’t feel the silkiness I expect with oatmeal. Maybe a slightly higher abv would give the chewiness I was looking for.
mattwix (5), Arizona, USA does not count Oct 5, 2008 The main drawback was aftertaste. It’s like I am drinking a fantastic dark stout and then after enjoying a semi-dry finish, it’s like I popped a piece of metal in my mouth. Ok, it’s not that bad, but the aftertaste needs some refinement. Otherwise, it’s fabulous. CanIHave4Beers (204), Des Moines, Iowa, USA Oct 1, 2008 Man, I think I might have gotten a bad bottle....
Generally speaking I tend to trust Breckenridge beers, but this had some really funky vegetable aromas and flavors. These of course did not mix well with the other flavors of Oatmeal, chocolate, and nuts. The beer looks fantastic in the glass with a big tan head and tons of lace. But something just was not quite right here.
Collint (347), Sylva, North Carolina, USA Sep 27, 2008 Bottle, pours a black beer with thin no head. Aroma is roasty and the flavor is roast, choco, coffee and oatmeal. A little bitter, not bad. kinda weak bretupdegraff (96), Fishers, Indiana, USA Sep 22, 2008 dark pour - limited aroma - flavor was a bit bland for me. Not a bad taste, it just dind’t bring enough for me. ucusty (1210), Wake Forest, North Carolina, USA Sep 17, 2008 Dark pour pour with a khaki head. Coffee and roast on the nose. Thin bodied. Flavor is espresso
