12 oz bottle. Pours a dark cola brown with very little tan head, quickly dissipating. Aroma is sweet caramel and malts, maybe a touch of oat. Initial flavor is good, though lighter than expected and totally devoid of oats, oatmeal, or anything resembling oatmeal. All sweet toasty matls, caramel, and smoke here. Nothing dark about this stout, it lacks almost any pleasing bitterness to balance out the body and palate. This is very light and almost springy for the style. Tasty, but not what I was expecting...

Dec 12, 2009 My first beer from Schlafly. Toasted grainy, oat and mild coffee aroma. The beer pours a deep brown color, looks black sitting in the glass, with a big fluffy tan head. Great head retention and thick notches of lace after each sip. The flavors are light; slightly roasty with soft oatmeal, cream, and some underlying chocolate. Despite being a bit mild and light there’s enough going on and it’s clearly well put together. Very drinkable. Good beer.

Sep 29, 2009 12oz bottle (Bottled on 7/16/09) served in an English pint glass. Near black pour with a few mahogany highlights and a thin tan head that quickly settled into a film. Minimal lacing. The aroma had thick caramel, lightly toasted oats, cold coffee, light milk chocolate, and a hint of dark fruits. The flavor had lightly bitter roast, oats, coffee, and some caramel in the background. Medium-bodied mouthfeel. Moderately carbonated. Decent.

Sep 14, 2009 Black and ruby color with a frothy short head. Aroma of pumpernickel, coffee and roasted oats. Dark chocolate, coffee, cascade hops. Full body and slick mouthfeel. I’ve had better oat stouts but this is pretty solid

Aug 27, 2009 Bottle: Pours a light blackish-brown color with a small tan head. Nose has a bit of raisin, roasted malts and a strange, out-of-place smokiness that seemed to throw it off. Medium-light body, the smokiness returns in the taste but this time compliments the oat and roasted malts quite well. Not a bad brew by any means, though the oats didn’t seem to contribute much of that silky texture that I’m accustomed to with oat-based brews.
