Four Peaks Oatmeal Stout

On tap at Scottsdale location. Pours a clear dark brown with light tan head and great lacing. Nose is oats, burnt malt and light coffee. Taste is chalky cocoa, toasted malt and mild coffee. Full, creamy mouth feel. Not bad – a bit mild and very drinkable.

Very mild and uneventful with the normal players getting involved: chocolate, roasted malt, bitter coffee, etc., etc., etc.. Tasty but not one I’d go out of my way for.

Black, small head. Flavor and aroma of dark chocolate, slight coffee, bitter hops, carob, coffee. On tap at brewery.

Dry! Simple! This beer is not quite gnarly, and far from complex. The dark flavor isn’t lively enough to reminisce coffee... more like plain old bean. A roasted oatiness definitely makes an appearance, but the blandness does nothing to counteract the bitter finish.

Draft - big, roasty nose. Typical appearance. Unbelievably creamy mouthfeel. Big roasted coffee flavor. This is a standout!
