Can pour into nonic pint glass from Greg & Jane's Beer and Wine. Appearance is dark, dark brown--virtually opaque--with decent sparkle at the edges of the glass, finger-width light brown head with fair retention and trace lacing. Aroma is roasted malt with mild coffee, chocolate. Taste is roasted malts, nuts, vanilla, oats, late earthy bitterness. Palate is medium bodied with smooth, thick texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, not groundbreaking by any means but solid and enjoyable.

Decent oatmeal stout, a bit anemic around the edges but with enough charred malt and java notes to stay drinkable. Mild nutty tones sit atop unsweetened chocolate and coffee, with a modest hop bitterness balancing out any minor sweet notes. Metallic undertones show up on the back end, as do hints of coffee cherries and anise. Chocolate and char on the nose. Pours a deep dark brown with a brief tan head and modest lacing. A bit overcarbonated and prickly for an oatmeal stout. Okay, but it's fairly easy to find better these days.

Bottle. Dark brown with slight reddish tint against the light, very small frothy off-white head, coffee/cherry aroma, medium carbonation, bitter chocolate taste with sour cherry flavor, smooth thickish body, long mocha finish. Very satisfying fullness.

16oz can. Rich, luscious, sweet, oaty Stout. Thick brown-black body, creamy beige head. The coffee adds a roasty, smoky touch. Pleasant offering. OK.
