5/10 Appearance 7 Aroma 4 Flavor 4 Texture 8 Overall 4.5
Taster pour from a can at Saratoga beer Summit. Opaque black, decent ring of head, light lacing. Aroma, strong, roasted earthy malt with a putrid element. Taste follows aroma. Smooth extra soft, carbonation, unpleasant finish. Did something happen to this can? Not enjoyable.

7.6/10 Appearance 7 Aroma 7.5 Flavor 7.5 Texture 8 Overall 8
Can to English pint glass.
Appearance: dark brown close to black color with a finger and a half's worth of off white foamy head which slid off at a fair pace.
Aroma: dark chocolate bitterness, some cocoa powder, dark bread, roasty coffee tones, some oatmeal, light caramel malts
Flavor: semi-sweet to roasty blending the prior mentioned aromas nicely and then lead into a sly aftertaste of oatmeal, roasty coffee, and dark chocolate
Texture: light to medium bodied, somewhat sessionable, low carb, smooth on tongue, finishes pretty smooth and oaty
Overall: nice enough oatmeal stout, I think I could come back to.
