Iron Hill Bourbon Oatmeal Stout

Tap at Lancaster location. Deep rich black beer with a creamy black head. The aroma is very rich and sweet with lots of caramel, light vanilla, toffee, and chocolate. A soft oaky character with more vanilla coming out as the beer warms up. Rich sweet chocolate and a lovely oaky character, light vanilla and a soft sweet finish. As it continues to warm, more soft sweet bourbony sweetness comes to the fore. Peppery and lightly oaky on the back... seriously tasty stuff.

On tap at IH Wilmington. Blackish pour with a creamy head. Aroma is sweet with vanilla, cream, chocolate, and wood. Flavor has some sweet coffee, vanilla, cream, chocolate, and some light raspberry. Smooth and creamy profile. Nice - not quite as good as the bourbon Impy Stout or Bourbon porter, but tasty and pretty sessionable. Vry good, but like its relatives, enough with the nitro!

at the pub, had the pleasure of trying this beer both on nitro and i got the last pull from the cask. both were extremely good.head was better on the nitro for obvious reasons , tenacious. each had a silky smooth refined texture, like drinking cream. the aroma of this beer had notes of cedar, campfire sulfur match tips. ("stuff") , a sweet finish. what beer would be if beer was a white russian.

On TAP at Wilimington brewery: This is a combination of Southern Tiers Oat and GI Bourbon County Stout. I LOVED it! Color was black, brownish head. At first I thought it smelled like to much bourbon, but it was the right amount because of all the other flavors going on. Lots of chocolate, vanilla and nice thick taste of oats. I cant wait to have another!

Pour was nice rich black chocolate with a choco-brown colored head, quite generous, must abeen the nitrogen. Aroma was rich bourbon some vanilla, no amount of nitrogen was gonna kill that bourbon, although it wasn’t way overkill. The flavor did feature some chocolate in the finish and some dry oats in the aftertaste, keeping the finish fairly clean for a bourbon aged beer. Pretty nicely done, probably about as nice as can be done when bourbon aging such a low abv beer.
