(props to mike td for opeing this @ the ba alesmith release.black body with a nice brown head that left webbing.i pick up lots of roasted malts and wheat.body is a little thin.

Thanks to miketd for bringing this to the Alesmith Release party line tasting. Roasty aromas off this dark dark beer with a decent tan head. Sweetness is the beginning flavor with a slightly dry and bitter finish. not bad at all.

On tap at Buckeye Beer Engine. Pour is black with a brown head. Nice lacing. Aroma is roasy malt, chocolate and sweet. Flavor is toasted malt and slightly bitter. Dry and has a nice mouthfeel.

Tried this on tap at The Buckeye beerengine. It was served with a thick, creamy head and had a beautiful coffee aroma. This was an excellent stout, it had a nice roasted/chocolate taste but not too roasty or bitter. The oatmeal in the grain bill really gives this a smooth taste and excellent mouth feel-I Highly recommend this one for St. Patrick’s day quaffing.

Nose of coffee, chocolate & berries, toffee, vanilla, flowers. Very well done, nothing at all missing from the aroma. The wicked cascade resolves into a rocky frothy brown head the color of a cola Icee/Slushy. The head is just rediculous, could easily overflow from a yard glass. No lace, but fully lasting. Black with black highlights. Wow! Been a long time since I’ve had an exceptional stout. Can’t remember the last one that was this good. Very complex flavor, malty, spicy, & tangy. Decent lingering finish of coffee. The medium body is creamy and fizzy. Grossly underrated IMO; this one really caught me by surprise. More people need to sample this heavyweight offering - what a shame.

Draught: Pours black, tan head. Chocolate and roasted malts dominate. The oats come through bigtime with maybe some lactose as well, no hops. Thin mouthfeel could’ve used more body, I would not call this a foreign stout, this was a straight oatmeal stout. Not bad but not great.
