Reviewed from notes.
The appearance was a dark amber to brown color with a thin off white foamy head that slid off at a moderate pace. Light stringy lace.
The aroma had some sweet oats, slight sweet grains, some biscuits, dark chocolate, milk chocolate, light coffee bean, dark fruits, light vanilla and ended with a little bit of earthy hops.
The flavor leaned upon the sweetness of the prior mentioned aromas. Light chocolate to dark fruity and sweet cream-like aftertaste. Same sort of finish.
The feel was about medium bodied, maybe a touch under with a decent sessionability about it. I’d say this was pretty smooth all along my tongue.
Overall, it’s a pretty nice sweet stout showing a bit more balance than some others of it’s style. I’d have this one again.

On tap at OB. Deep chestnut brown body, thin/medium cream head. Toasty, dry chocolate aroma. Flavor profile was nice and full with rich roasted malts, toast, and plenty of baker’s chocolate. Relatively creamy and somewhat dry for a sweet stout. Yup, it’s Old Boys’ best beer.
