Sep 27, 2009 22oz bottle from crizzle. Dark rootbeer brown with a little bit of a tan head. Sweet cola slightly roasty vanilla and some peatiness and fresh plum going on. Lots of oak with thin body. Some aspertame in the after taste. I don’t know that an oatmeal stout is the best choice for a Jim Beam barrel.

Jul 2, 2009 Updated: Jul 6, 200922 oz. bottle, shared with Peter. Pours a thin almost non existant head, no lacing over a dark, clear cola colored body.........nose is heavy with burbon, bit of cocoa, chocolate, coffee......taste initially is sweet dark roasted malt (chocolate, coffee, slight molasses) then Bourbon flavors come in and dominate....mouth feel is cola like. This is not a good beer and is completely unbalanced. The nose and flavors are dominated by the Bourbon, there is absolutely no creaminess from oatmeal (although I can detect it) and the whole concoction reminds me of Bourbon and cola.

May 18, 2009 Color is a near solid black amber with mellow carbonation and a thin tan head. Aroma is a roasted bourbon scent. Taste is light and toasted. Starting with a medium body it goes down easy with a light crisp feel. Finish is roasted with flavors of chocolate, bourbon, oak and a hint of vanilla. After taste is a little sour with a hint of alcohol. Overall its a nice and very drinkable Stout, but its a bit light.

Nov 28, 2008 Dark brown, with a tan head. Aroma is bourbon, roasted malt, chocolate, and vanilla. Flavor is chocolate, roasted malt, and bourbon. Thin body. This really doesn’t seem like a stout. Interesting, though.
