Feb 4, 2009 A dark ale with definite sweet notes detectable. I had it on tap but I know it is only available in cans elsewhere. I must say, a very good canned beer.

Jan 31, 2009 really smooth beer. drinking this cold could break you off real quick. a little bit of sour funk on the end but it goes away and dries up pretty quick. front side is pretty sweet, but really, this beer feels like it was formulated to be smooth and get you faded. I get a little bit of a warm gut, but my mouth tastes like fresh water only a few seconds after a good pull. Little dry though. Could probably go for another. I might grab this one again next time I go sell posters for bums. Bottom line: a pleasant way to get your old lady mad at you.

Jan 29, 2009 very sweet. lacks body and balance. not much happening for an 8%. expected a much more bold flavor. feels like a soda pop. i just can’t find the nose. maybe caramel in there.
I gotta say, though... for the price it’s one I’ll come back to. good with food since it takes a back seat.

Jan 28, 2009 Very dark brown with a small diminishing head. Alcohol aroma with sugar and malts present. This is a complex and confusing beer; not like most others. The nose is similar to a wine, with a tannin like taste that quickly finishes into a broad malt explosion. At the very end, alcohol dominates the finishes. I don’t get this beer, and I definitely don’t think it warrants a high rating. Nothing against OB, I love 10 Fidy and Dale’s, but this is a very dis-jointed beer that is not very balanced, and does not have any particularly pleasant flavors.

Jan 27, 2009 This poured poured dark brown with ruby highlights when held to light and a very thin off-white head. The aroma was of malty sweetness, but not very dominant. The taste was of caramel and peat. It was sticky sweet, but so very smooth and easy-drinking. Did not seem like it was 8%abv to me, as I could easily drink a few of these. I really enjoyed this one.

Jan 25, 2009 Can pours a dark cola brown with garnet highlights and decent ring of tan head. Nose of sweet malts and chocolate with a faint dogfood quality. Flavors of plum, toast, caramel malt, sugar. Alcohol is very well masked. Medium full creamy body.

Jan 25, 2009 Very good! Looks like Coke in the glass. Sweet chocolate and coffee on the nose. Toasty malt sweetness in the mouth with some faint peatiness. I’ll be buying some more of this one.

Jan 25, 2009 12oz can from Rollin Oats (Tampa, FL). Pours a murky dark black color with a one finger tan head that settles slowly and laces the glass. Aroma is sweet and malty with notes of chocolate, dark ripe fruit, brown sugar, molasses, and hints of vanilla and cream. Flavor is roasted and malty with notes of sweet caramel, milk chocolate, nuts, ripe dark fruit, almost some hints of brandy-like alcohol overtones. Generally medium to full body with a pleasing malty and sweet finish.
