ketchepillar (250), Des Moines, Iowa, USA Aug 7, 2008 This one is interesting. Reminds me of Deschutes Black Butte Porter. Crystal malt. Some poopy-ness. Not bad. Takes some getting used to. kosko20 (81), Bemidji, Minnesota, USA Jul 11, 2008 Just had this one on tap and my first Oatmeal Stout. Did not taste any oatmeal at all but definitely a roasty flavor. Goes down smooth and does smell very nice. I was expecting something heavier but was a nice, first Oatmeal Stout impression. tedovertu (105), Apple Valley, Minnesota, USA May 20, 2008 A little less lively than the Breckenridge oatmeal stout. Pitch black in color with a dark chocalate/coffee tinge. Off white quickly disappearing head. Had at Old Chicago, Eagan, MN. bu11zeye (3656), Frisco, Texas, USA Apr 12, 2008 (Bottle) Pours a dark brown body with an average-sized beige head. Aroma of roasted malt, chocolate, and heavy cream. Flavor of roasted malt, toasted oats, light coffee, and chocolate with a dry finish. JorisPPattyn (4275), Antwerpen, Belgium Apr 3, 2008 Small dark-brown head over practically jet-black beer. Burnt & roasted malt/barley, and sweet impression from the oats. Sweet and stout-sour. Burnt pastry edges; blueberries, and other fruit flavours. A bit watery. The enormous amount of burnt malts fills in, but in the finish, it peters out, leaving just a little sticky impression. Reasonable stout, sweetish and light, but still flavourful. Thanks, Dirk
