Commercial Description:
Enjoy this as a token of our appreciation. With the demise of Tröegs Oatmeal Stout, this long-forgotten recipe serves as an inspiration and a heartfelt thanks to our faithful stout fans.

What’s special here? We start with a seductive malty sweetness, combine it with hints of chocolate and roasted flavors and round out the texture and taste with a healthy helping of oats. A three-hop blend brings perfect balance to the sweet malt adding a dry finish to this big beer.

12oz bottle. Poured a dark brown color with a large sized tan head. Aromas of chocolate, pine, roast, and vanilla. Tastes of chocolate, vanilla, pine, roast, and a trace of caramel. Thinner for an Imperial Stout. Alcohol content well hidden. Lacing left on the glass.

Bottle… O-Town Throwdown Part Tres… Murky, dark, burnt orange ale with a mid-sized, creamy, tan head. Decent retention. The aroma is rich and malty with barely more than a hint of chocolate. Bitter-sweet, roasted, chocolaty flavor. Medium to full-bodied with lively carbonation. A touch thin for an imperial stout. Burnt, moderately bitter finish.
