Our small batch series carries on! This time we brewed an Oatmeal Stout for the impending New England winter weather. Drivetrain pours a jet black with a persistent mocha head. We taste upfront coffee roast flavor backed by dark fruit character, and a light malty sweetness. The oats lend a slight nutty flavor, and help contribute to the smooth creamy mouth feel of this beer, making her a real sipper. Enjoy!

750 ml growler thanks to blisscent on this growler. Deep brown color with very thin head. Aroma is old chocolate, oatmeal, and a light dark bread hints.
The flavor is a bit flat. Nothing to get to excited about here. Old coffee grounds, chocolate has a chalky texture with lightly,smoked nuts. Mouthfeel is almost medium. Borderline thin.

750mL growler filled 2/19/16, drunk 2/20/16.
Not much head surprisingly. Tan bubbles recede to ring. Low clarity in a cocoa ebony body.
Ashy very heavily roasted, bitter chocolate. Light yeast, bread and a bit of dull coffee grind. Pretty given to some dull ashey character. Not much fruitiness, no hops, no light malt character.
Maltier in the mouth with toffee-caramel and more earthy coffee grounds. Wet leaves. Soft, malty texture with fudge and light vanilla cream. Low carbonation. Drinkable.

75CL. Thanks Nelson, brown to black with reddish edges. Smells like a porter with a lot of sweetness. Creamy mouthfeel, basic flavor, it has a solid chocolate presence, with some tobacco, wood, charcoal, dark fruit and milky finish. Decent but just a stout.
