4 oz pour on nitro at Spacebar. Black with light tan head. Aromas of caramel, cocoa, dark chocolate. Tastes of caramel, cocoa, dark chocolate, slight raisin. Medium-full body with a dry finish. Creamy mouthfeel. Nice.

On nitro tap at Sedona. Beautiful. Creamy chocolate, coffee, hints of caramel. Tasty but not a tremendous standout. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Tap at Stagshead. Deep dark brown. Milk chocolate nose. Tastes of lactose, chocolate, oats, some roasted malt, bitter coffee. Just a touch sweet. Light palate. Smooth as silk.

Total Wine, Fairfax bottle: pours black with a beige head. Aroma is light roasted pretzel, light chocolate, and some coffee. Taste is lightly bitter. Not too sweet. This is pretty smooth and nice. Not really a sweet atout in my opinion.

12 oz bottle purchased at 7- Eleven for an awesome price of $1.79. Pitch black color with thin white head. Aroma is oat flakes with chocolate and a very mild smoke. That is a surprise.
Flavors are chocolate, light brownie batter, burnt sugars, oats and just a hint of smoky char. The body and palate is nice due to the oats. Thicker body with a dry roasted/ smoke texture. For the price this brew rocks! I really appreciate a solid made brew at a great price, nicely done!

Pours black into a shaker. Mocha head with good retention recedes leaving trailing sheets. Chocolate and licorice aromas. Dry with sweet caramel and coffee upfront turning to burnt espresso in the lasting finish.

Bottle pour at Powder Keg Beer & Chili Festival. Aroma is roasted malts with some chocolate. Appearance is nice black pour with minimal discernible sparkle, minimal beige head with mild lacing. Taste is similar to aroma with medium sweet roasted and chocolatey flavor but also with a little bit of smoke. The smoke is a little off though (burned some bird droppings with a magnifying glass as a kid and it reminds me a little of that). Palate is light-to-medium body with creamy texture and soft to average carbonation. Overall, a nice looking and smelling beer with nice palate but the slightly off smokey flavor gives some demerits.

Better than expected. Nice creamy head. Choco moose, heheh. Beautiful lacing too. Quite laid back and happy. Nice first impressions. A sweet stout that does not go beyond plain stout territory. Good balanced job. Yes,a roasty fun berw fer sure. More mellow, civilized and well behaved than most. One of the better stouts I’ve had in a while. Fun. Just good mild beer experiences.

Bottle at home in CT. Pours rich brown with a frothy beige head. The nose has pleasant roast, some coffee, cocoa, earth. Medium sweet actor with lightly gooey chocolate, burnt toast, bitter coffee, faint wood, marshmallowZ medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Finishes with burnt sugars, milk chocolate, balanced roast, scorched earth. Really drinkable stuff. Otter Creek doesn’t get a lot of love, but they put out some damn solid beers.
