| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 14/20 | Feb 13, 2007 Bottled. A deep red beer with a brown head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of caramel, hops, and coffee. The flavor is sweet with strong notes of roasted malt, as well as lighter notes of alcohol and grapefruit, leading to a dry roasted end with notes of oatmeal lingering around. The body is a bit on the thin side inspite of the 6.8% ABV and the oatmeal. MrBendo (1043), Swedesboro, New Jersey, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jan 18, 2007 Pours pitch black in the glass with a thin ivory head. Lots of lacing. Smells grainy and creamy, hints of sweet coffee.
Taste is grainy and robust. Bitingly bitter followed by a creamy sweetness from the oatmeal. Long roasty aftertaste. Mouth is very carbonated which masks alot of the creaminess and roasty flavor which is a shame. A bit less carbonation and this beer would be a great one. As it is it’s an above average and quite drinkable oatmeal stout. holdenn (1443), Chicago, Illinois, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jan 12, 2007 12 oz thanks to my SS! Pours black with a small tan fizzy head that fades without any lacing. Sweet coffee roast aromas a little uncomplicated and flat but not bad nonetheless. Fizzy sweet chocolate roasted flavors and a bitter coffee roast finish. Tasty. millysdaddy (67), Alexandria, Virginia, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jan 1, 2007 Poured from 12 oz. bottle. Color is a very dark mahogany with a little ruby. A light brown head. Roasty malt aroma. Hop bitterness up front, followed by a robust malty backbone. The bitterness of the hops leaves a dry aftertaste. JJClark (545), Roscoe, Illinois, USA

Pours a rich black color with a small tan head that leaves some nice lacing. Aroma of roasted coffee and drk chocolate. The stout has a very smooth crreamy mouthfeel without any bitterness. The taste is exceptionally balanced and no one flavor is over the top. Finishes with a roasted malt touch.
Very nice.
