El Toro Whiskey Barrel Aged Oatmeal Stout

on tap at toronado on my second may 11. cocoa powder aroma. creamy with some porridge and woodiness. perhaps a little too much sweetness but still quite pleasant

Pitch black coloured body with a non-existant head. Aroma of roasted malt, light coffee and some bittersweet (~60% cacao) chocolate. Medium-bodied; Mouth coating chocolate flavour with a ton of roasted malt & coffee flavours-very nice! End finishes with a slight lactic twang and some cherries. Overall, another good pick from El Toro! Cheers again to Toronado for bringing in this fine beer. I sampled this pint (served in a snifter) from draught at Toronado in San Francisco, California on the second day of 10-June-2004...our first was spent in Sydney, Australia.

Tap@Toronado, San Fransisco. Pretty sweet and rich. Roasty, with definite oak, whiskey and peaty malt notes, very rich and sweet, dries out a touch towrds the end, very tasty though.
