Sample at the brewery taproom. This brew pours brownish-black with a medium foamy tan head that recedes slowly. Aroma of roasted malt, coffee and chocolate. Medium to full body with flavors of burnt malt, coffee and dark chocolate. The finish is roasty with a mocha aftertaste. Pretty good all around.

Opaque black color, small beige-brown head. Lots of coffee, some dark candy in the aroma. Medium to full-bodied. Coffee, salt licorice, roasted maltyness. As always, oat makes stouts smooth. This is very pleasant oatmeal stout.
