Siletz Oatmeal Cream Stout

Brewed by Siletz Brewing and Public House
Style: Sweet Stout
Siletz, Oregon USA

Bomber from kenb;Nose of coffee, oatmeal graininess; would be like breakfast if some apple was in there; clear brown with a me3dium beige head; flavor has coffee, mild hop bitterness, and a bit of background oatmeal grain. Decent drinkable stout!

Appearance: Pours a black body with a foamy, beige head. Smell: Roasted dark malts, hints of oats but what you really get pummelled with is a foul-smelling sourness. Taste: Ugh, what a fiasco! It’s nothing but head-shaking displeasure as any proper malt or hop character is ruined by that tart sourness. This might actually be decent if they’d ever kick that bottling infection. Oh well! Mouthfeel: Thin-bodied. Moderate carbonation. Drinkability: I have yet to come across a Siletz bottle that wasn’t tainted with infection. Shame on you, Siletz!

Pours a deep brown color with a brown head. Aroma is sweet cream, oatmeal, roast, and chocolate. Flavor is mouth coating slightly spoiled cream, roast, plum, and a hint of chocolate.

Bottle: This has been hiding in my fridge for a while. Pours a dark brown with a small quickly dissapating coffee tan head. Aroma, chocolate and some oats, coffee, and a fruity sweetness. Flavor, roasted notes, and coffee up front, leading to a smooth but oddly acidic/metallic finish, that stays with you for the longest time. The initial flavor is fine, but the finish is just severely off putting.

Light black, moderate light tan head, decent lacing and retention. Aroma is roast, coffee, chocolate, oats, moderate to low hops. Medium bodied, lightly sweet and acidic. Dime a dozen.

22 oz. bottle courtesy of kenb. Pours black with a huge frothy beige head that leaves significant lacing. The problem was that this was a gusher that didn’t stop. Once I was able to analyze the rest, the aroma was roasted malts, burnt coffee, grapefruit, and semi sweet chocolate. The flavor was more roasted malts, slight amount of coffee, semi sweet oatmeal cereal, and a biterness that accompanies the mild grapefruit flavors. Smooth drinking beer. I was a little turned off by the gusher.

Black with a tan head. Aroma is chocolate, coffee, light roastiness, some caramel, and cream. Taste is oatmeal, nice and roasty, cream, chocolate. Good sweet stout.

Bottle... Poured black with some highlights on the edges, thin brown head. strong roasted malt aroma that’s seems like it has some dairy character. Strong coffee flavors with some cookie-like malt and a beefy aftertaste. Very creamy and full-bodied.
