Gusler (2656), Tucson, Arizona, USA Sep 22, 2000 Quite a good stout. Dark, rich and roasted malt flavors, good hop spicyness. Very smooth and creamy, Guinness to strong for you, try this one. Avengedpoet (91), Mesa, Arizona, USA Oct 22, 2008 Pours midnight black with a velvety single-finger head. Aroma is of mostly roast and sweet malt with a very nice underlying oatmeal sweetness. Taste encompasses the full spectrum of coffee, chocolate, oatmeal, and roast all in velvet goodness. Far better than any of the dozen other oatmeal stouts that I have had. ninfan1 (14), USA May 28, 2002 wonderful head and delicious creamy flavor PullMeABeer (203), Phoenix, Arizona, USA May 13, 2004 Wow!! One of the darkest beers I have ever seen. Usually when an oatmeal stout is held up to the light you can see highlights (red/brown) around the edges. If there were any highlights on this beer they were paper-thin. Great. Draft, Tempe F.P. On Nitro. Poured black as space with a medium creamy nitro head (excellent). Aroma was great, sweet, burn malt, slight smoke, and dark (very soothing). The stout was creamy and very inviting on the tounge. Body ranged from feeling thin to very heavy and thick. Flavors include sweet dark malt, oak, mild smoke, earth, yeast, and a very nice mild bitterness for a perfect finish. Very impressive, I liked that it did not taste just like thick creamy coffee, it was much more deep in flavors. Maybe a new favorite!! smoosh (523), New Albany, Indiana, USA Oct 9, 2007 Draft - big, roasty nose. Typical appearance. Unbelievably creamy mouthfeel. Big roasted coffee flavor. This is a standout!
