This beer is a very dark brown color, with a long lasting off-white head. The aroma has some hints of chocolate, but mostly features roasty malt, caramel, and of course oatmeal. The flavor has medium bitterness and can be lightly sweet. It is a full-bodied beer with a rich, creamy texture. A good seasonal beer for cooler days, but sometimes uneven in quality.

The aroma is sweet with primary notes of oatmeal, but also a light roasted note. The flavor is sweet malty combined with notes of oatmeal, and again a lighter note of roasted malt.

Black, brownish with light head and lacing. Nose of vegetal roast, light asparagus and coffee. The flavor is creamy, light vanilla, some chocolate. The finish is a tough thin, decent. Needs more body and oat flavor. Nose was probably better yesterday (growler). SledgeJr (2972), Omaha, Nebraska, USA

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 18, 2006 From growler, courtesy of Hopscotch, post RBSG RFD tasting, enjoyed in the company of aracauna, springslicker, and kp. Pours a very dark brown with a small creamy beige head. Aroma is roasty with some light hoppiness and some oat character. Flavor is roasty with a light coffee and astringent finish. Moderate bitterness. Mouthfeel is light to medium bodied with light soft carbonation. Overall, a fairly well rounded Oatmeal Stout, but not too much going on. aracauna (2391), Georgia, USA
