Commercial Description:
Bottle; Pasteurised.
Sometimes known as Kinmount Willie Oatmeal Stout in the US.
Ingredients: Maris Otter Malt; Black Malt; Roasted Barley; Pinhead Oats; English grown Fuggles, Goldings and Target hops.
"Oats are used in the brewing of Scottish Oatmeal Stout to enhance the flavour of the black malt and roasted barley which give this traditional beer its rich dark colour and strong, complex roasted malt aroma and flavour, reminiscent of coffee and chocolate. These flavours are offset by a good hop bitterness and silky aftertaste."

Pours dark mahoganey with a fully receding thin tan head. Aroma of toffee, chocolate, dark malt, plums, and earthy dough. Taste is doughy, toffee, crystal malt, spice and brown malt. Not very stouty by US standards, but certainly enjoyable.

Full cream, fudgy malt sweetness in the nose. Pitch pour with beige foam. Opens with a slight brininess. Toffeeish sweetness, milk chocolate, a hint of smoke. Creamy and gently roasty. Good, but doesn’t quite satisfy like it should.

Brown/black, moderate, light brown head that leaves nice lacing. The aroma has notes of chocolate and the mouth feel is rather thin. The flavour is smooth and mild like many oatmeal stouts are, and it has notes of chocolate and a bit of smoke and coffee. The bitterness is modest, and the overall impression is a bit on the thin side.

Bottle. Aroma of a little bit of coffee and sweet milky malt. The palate is watery. The flavor is also watery and weak (only hints of roasted malt / coffee). The aftertaste is like a sweet german pilsner or something.

Poured; Blackish-brown, not much head. Aroma of chocolate, roasted malt and some oatmeal. This was really a bizarre version of the style. A watery beginning, with some coffee and maybe some chocolate. Long, lingering mystery flavor at the end. Just bland.

Poured black body however not like a usual stout, more like a coke cola. The nose was the best part. Not much flavor either. Nose was that of smokey chocolate.
