Commercial Description:
TCB's Oatmeal stout is a wonderful surprise. It's very smooth, not heavy and has a full coffee chocolate-like flavor. We serve this beer under nitrogen from our nitro taps to ensure that cap of thick creamy foam.

Black color. Aroma is medium. Aroma is roasted malts and chocolate. A medium bodied oatmeal stout. Malts are roasted and chocolately. Hops are slightly spicy. Smooth texture. Flavors are mild, but a very drinkable stout. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean and smooth.Aftertaste is slightly bitter.

Served on a nitrogen dispense. This beer pours with a persistent creamy light brown head. The beer itself is a deep black beer with clear deep brown notes when held up to the light. This beer has a nice dry roasted malt aroma with a mix of espresso, burnt charcoal, and toast. This definitely has a nice aroma. The taste is smooth and creamy with a malty sweetness up front. This beer is very smooth throughout, including a subtle smooth roast character in the finish. This goes down so easily, much better than draught Guinness, and a great quaffer. So far the most enjoyable beer, a great session beers.

Poured black from the growler with a small chocolate color head. Aroma of roasty malts and coffee. Body was a bit light with a roasty malt and coffee flavor. Easy drinking stout but a bit on the light side.

Sampler: Roasted coffee aroma. Black body with tan head. Flavor was of a creamy coffee with a rasted finish. Bought a growler for the road. Man something chaged with the flavor. That richer creamy flavor was gone and replaced by a more watered down taste. Will hae to go back and try a full glass some other time.

On tap at TCB - Pours a black color with a light tan head. Has a light roasted malt aroma. Flavor is mostly coffee. Smooth but thin. Not bad.
