Changed (161), Ithaca, New York, USA Apr 5, 2008 Updated: Apr 22, 2008I’ve twice this one twice now. Both purchased at Finger Lakes Beverage, 12oz bottles.
Pours dark brown (black?), tan head. Very creamy, very smooth mouthfeel, tastes of oats, honey, and some chocolate.
Again, this beer is NOT exciting, but not bad. At $2.75 per 12oz though, not worth drinking more than once or twice. Pwn3d (1036), Manhattan, New York, USA Apr 3, 2008 Black opal in color. Mouth is somewhat of a leather taste. creamy and a strong, linger of chocolate malts. Wasnt really into it, just missing that "wow" factor. And I would of liked to see more alcohol in this. I think SS has better offerings. tkimbrought05 (37), Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, USA Apr 3, 2008 Pours very dark brown with a tan frothy head. Smells chocolate with a slight hint of smoke underneath. Nice feel on the palate, exactly what I would want out of a stout. Tastes of roasted malts and sweetness. One of my favorites. gabrielsyme (66), Ohio, USA Apr 2, 2008 Updated: Apr 12, 2008I was really excited to try this as the first real beer glass I bought was a Samuel Smith tulip and haven’t had any SS yet. Anyway, pint bottle, pours deep mahagony-red brown, small tan head. Rich nutty smell. Medium roasted taste, medium body, slightly bitter finish snook91901 (34), USA Apr 2, 2008 Aroma is all dark malts and caramel. Pours a dark brown with tan head, excellent lacing. The flavor is sweet and so well blended, creamy almost like a spanish flan. lithy (1600), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA Apr 2, 2008 A significant beer for me, this one (on the recommendation of a friend) started me down this long path/hobby/obsession with good beer. The pour is a near black brown with a pillowy tan head that lasts through the drink, looks like an oatmeal stout should is all I can say. Lots of dark roasted malts in the nose and a nice feel in the mouth. It has a weight to it without being creamy like some sweet stouts. A fantastic stout taste accented by warm oatmeal in the finish. A near perfect beer. daknole (2802), Plantation, Florida, USA Apr 2, 2008 Oh hell yes. Sweet and dark nectar! Perfect carbonation and wonderful malt notes wtih an amazing mouthfeel. A winner for sure! FlyingSwine (169), Littleton, Colorado, USA Apr 1, 2008 Pours a DARK brown (black) with a thin tan head. Sweet roasted marshmallows. Flavor is sweet and malty, with a fairly nice balance. Palate is extra smooth (silky seems to be overused :-}). Love the session strength. Overall one of the best Oatmeal Stouts around.
