Oskar Blues Old Chub

Brewed by Oskar Blues Grill & Brew
Style: Scotch Ale
Lyons, Colorado USA

12oz can. Pours dark brown with red highlights. Thin, fizzy, offwhite head, no retention, no lace. Smells dark and malty sweet and dark ripe fruity. Very tasty, dark malty, dark ripe fruits, and then somewhat roasty malty as well. Medium body, good carbonation.

Can. Dark brown, coffee colored, with a dense off white head. Malty - caramel, some toffee. Relatively balanced aroma. Toasty and sweet flavor. Metallic in the back. Oily, bitter finish. Vinous, tannic, chalky at the end. A definitely solid, consistent, and widely available brew.

Dark brown, with a reddish tinge. Thick foamy cream coloured head. Chocolate and toffee aroma. Sweet chocolate and toffee malt, generously provided. A pruney character to the finish, a little earthy as well. Boozy warming finish, sweet. Very nice.

a solid choice for dessert. tastes way better when you pour it out of the can into glass. this one is almost black, looking thick and heavy. great aroma of rich, sweet malts. flavors of milk chocolate, caramel, raisins, bread, and smoke. not hoppy, not supposed to be hoppy. delicious beer. alcohol is almost totally hidden, making it quite dangerous. try dale’s pale ale with dinner followed by old chub with dessert to experience microbrew bliss.

355 ml can. Dark bown color, disappering beige head. Aroma is very malty, both roasted, chocolate and caramel - also hints of hops. Flavor is malty, with ok hops and some alcohol, but doesnt live up to the aroma.

Dark black beer. 1 inch tan head. Smells like caramel roasted malts. Tastes like dark roasted malts, chocolate, caramel, toffee, and is just all around delicious. Having the luxury of having all the Oskar BLues brews in a can is a dream come true. We can now drink quality beer out of acan. Wow! what an idea. The texture is medium light, which is just grand. This is a delicious beer, a great meal replacement, and a sure winner out here on the ocean.

It was poured into a snifter and since it was the last beer in the sixer i bought i decided it was about time to rate it. This beer has a dark brown color with no head and a good amount of carbonation. It does however leave some spotted streaks along the sides of the glass. The nose is swwet toffee with some bitter hops and roasted malt with hints of chocolate. As you drink it there is a nice toasted initial flavor filled with rich moca and coffee. the roasted flavors mixed with the chocolate moca stick to your palate like glue. overall it is a great beer and the fact that it comes in a can makes it better since canned beer is always assumed to be bad or of poor quality.

Pours with a small, creamy, light brown head that quickly disapates. Body is an ultra dark reddish-brown body. Aroma of peat, smoke, some sweet malts, and dark fruits. Pretty light tasting, finishes with some peat, smoke and malt. Hard water mouthfeel with low carbonation. Alcohol is well hidden.
