Commercial Description:
This dark ale is a hearty and satisfying reward for those of us who embrace the frozen tundra. Uncut oatmeal fresh from Chilton, Wisconsin gives this Stout a "sink into it" smoothness that slides you into its depth. Handcrafted English Chocolate malt and Wisconsin Victory malt combine to balance this robust ale. Expect this ale to pour a luxurious rich head over a rich black ruby body. The powerful malt bouquet will greet you as you tip this silky smoothness from your glass. Our Oatmeal Stout is handcrafted in the time-honored traditions. Serve just above room temperature and relax -- road construction season will soon return.

Bottle courtesy TheCheeseMan. Dark brown color with a dense dark khaki head. Light chocolate and nutty aroma, mild roast background. A bit thin on the palate, but the taste is nice, a bit more of the roast comes out to meet the chocolate sweetness. Nice and sessionable.

Bottle. Intense dark brown pour with little head. Aroma mostly of chocolate with notes of coffee and roasted malt. Similar flavor, though more balanced. Creamy mouthfeel with some nice carbonation.

Say... this is tasty. Bottle courtesy of dchmela. Dark, dark brown with half-inch head that dies down to a nice thin layer on top. Sweet malt and oatmeal on the nose with some chocolate notes. More thin than expected on the palate; sweet, with a more chocolate and creamy flavor, though the oatmeal is always present. Odd to be tastin this during the summer, I suppose, but this is a very pleasant beer.

Bottle poured to glass. Pours almost black with a small tan head. Smooth mellow, dark chocolaty roasted notes, with a mild hop aroma. Smooth creamy mouth feel. A nice well rounded stout that is not overly complex or bitter.

Bottle thanks to decaturstevo. Poured a dark brown with a thin tan head that leaves light lacing. Sweet and roasty aroma of coffee and dark chocolate. Nice chocolate and roast coffee flavor. Medium body with a great roast after taste. Very Nice!!

Pours a dark amber black with a medium sized tannish head. The Aroma is sweet chocolate, cherries and a bit doughy. The flavor is initially sweet chocolate but then floral hops and oats shine through. Finishes abruptly and sweet. Really a very good example of the style.

Excellent stout. Again, New Glarus does right by a style. The Road Slush delivers deep flavor with a refined finish. I’ll look for more of this in the coming winter.

12 oz. bottle courtesy of goryshkewych. Thanks George! Medium brown pour with a medium head. Roasted malt aroma with coffee notes. Taste is very big coffee with some chocolate, oatmeal. Medium bodied. Straightforward and very solid.
