Broughton Scottish Oatmeal Stout (Cask)

<i>Cask Conditioned at Market Porter, London</i>
Almost black color. Very light aroma, some roasted malt in it. Poor body and flavor, some roasted malt, lightly smokey. Boring.

A Mes rate. Cask at the Market Porter. Black body with a tan head and decent condition. Rich smoked malt aroma with some slight earth, not amazing but nice enough. There is an odd note of cardboard in the flavour but lashings of smoky malt and some cereal and bread sort it out nicely. Meaty finish with plenty of bacon plus some developing chalky chocolate. Interesting but not quite right.

Cask at Charlies. Black coloured with a beige head. Light roasted and fruity aroma with notes of coffee. Light roasted flavour of fruits, apples and wood. Bland.

Cask at Charlie’s Bar, Copenhagen. A black beer with a brown shine and a nice brown head. The aroma is sweet with notes of roasted malt and some fruit. The flavor is sweet roasted with notes of fruit and a touch of chocolate. the body is thin.

Cask@Battersea BF. Thin and watery fro a stout. Some light roastyness and not a lot else going on. NOt unpleasant, just a bit thin.

Deep black, with a roasted malt aroma, Hint of chocolate, with a bitter linger and a hint of Dandylion and burdock

tk2 Cask Aberdeen Beer festival 07 ... as i said no change.

Cask gravity at Battersea BF 2007. Black colour with dark brown edges and tan head. Liquorice stout. Good fullness in mouth, some choc. Some good roasted flavours. Choc/coffee flavours.

Gravity Cask @ Battersea Beer Festival. Deep black. Watery and thin. Sweet liquoricey malts and tart berries. A little boring. Oatmeal seems to have a reputation as adding a full smooth silkiness to the body but this was less richly bodied than most standard stouts.
