Flagship Series. A delicious Oatmeal Stout with just enough hops to balance the copious quantities of dark roasted malts, oatmeal for a creamy smooth drinkability, and whole vanilla beans for a rich complexity.

Bomber from Wine Warehouse. Pours black and thick with an inch of creamy brown head. Aroma of dark chocolate, vanilla, light sweet alcohol. First sip is a bit ordinary, but the second sip is where it all kicks in. Heavy dark chocolates, lots of bitter vanilla, some roasted coffee and a bit of earth. Tasty./\

Bottle from Albertsons. Even my friends are all over the board on this one. Normal stout pour, small skin of a head. Vanilla is the first noticeable aroma, and not out of place on a sweet stout. Taste brings in more vanilla flavor, but again it blends well. Finishes sweet , but short. All in all, very well rounded and approachable

Great look with huge brown head and black body. Soft roasted barley aroma. Wonderful flavour mix of coffee and hops with a chocolate finish. Brilliant flavour.

Bomber to glass. Long day of drinking, but this is really just a roasted barley and artificial vanilla concoction/mess. Not too enjoyable. Everything tastes forces and genetically modified.

Bottle. A- Vanilla, cocoa, slightly sweet, bitter, dry. A- Black color, black liquid, brown head. T- Subtle vanilla, bitter coffee, cocoa, dry. P- Full body, average texture, average carbonation, bitter finish. O- Not as smooth as one would hope and not a ton of vanilla. Seemed to be pretty bitter and dry, especially towards the end and more notes of coffee than anything else. Good for $4 a bomber but otherwise let down.

Ninkasi Vanilla Oatis - bomber from The Bottle Shop in Seoul. A similar reddish black pour. The nose is a nice vanilla, like a pastry brioche. Medium-light bodied, the tasty is roasty chocolate & vanilla with some oats notes. Quite good.
