| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Nov 12, 2007 12 oz bottle-trade w/pepsican. Saw lager on the label of this beer & was a little surprised when it poured out black; a closer examination showed I had a Lager Colony Oatmeal Stout. Kind of different, not a bad sweet stout, flavors are kind of subdued. Some roasted malt & coffee; had a lot of carboination. Easy drinker, not as much chocolate as some, oatmeal comes thru. Good Brew, Thanks Andy! ChainGangGuy (2592), Kennesaw, Georgia, USA
| 2.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 8/20 | Oct 8, 2007 Appearance: Pours a black body with ruby-hued edges and a thin, thin khaki-colored head.
Smell: Mild, faint aroma of dark malts, with a hint of dark chocolate and metal.
Taste: Lightly sweetened, smokey dark chocolate flavor. Finishes tangy and metallic.
Mouthfeel: Thin-bodied. Displeasingly watery.
Drinkability: Using a lager yeast for an oatmeal stout, though it could be considered an exercise in creativity, did not serve the final product well at all. Or, hell, it may just be an infected bottle. Either way, this is one poor beer. mhot55 (99), USA

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | May 7, 2007 Plain flavor: coffee malt and slight sugary sweetness. I did like the smoothness though, as compared to a traditional oatmeal stout. sloth (1678), Ceciltucky, Co., Maryland, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 5, 2007 Small tan head, good retention with minimal lacing. Black bodied, opaque. Nose is chocolatey, light roast and caramel notes. Body is med/light with a light oilyness. Chocolate flavors up front with notes of roast, malt balls, lacto? and a gentle roastiness. Finish is lightly sweet and roasty. Sweet Stout? Not really. Enjoyable brew. Thanks to eaglefan538 for nettin me Iowa. Thanks Brian!
