Can from Flavourly. Pours dark brown with a thick beige head. Aromas of light roast, coffee, faint dark chocolate. Taste is quite dry though, more roasty and coffee notes. Dry finish.

Can thanks to allmyvinyl. Appearance - deep brown to black with orange/red chinks. Not much deeper than the Killanny red ale. Nose - smoke, liquorice and molasses but with still some caramel buried inside. Taste - caramel more prevalent, still roast, smoke and liquorice. Palate - medium bodied, roasty finish with a decent length. Overall - good, and on style.

Classically designed oatmeal stout from the country where stout was invented, thanks Craftmember for sharing. Pale greyish white, moussy, medium thick, opening head, very dark chocolate brown robe - near black, but with a deep mahogany hue still discernible. Aroma of chestnuts, dried dates, Ersatz chocolate ('Koetjesreep'), brown bread, muesli, ground hazelnuts, touch liquorice. Sweetish, clean onset, dried dates and raisins, medium carb, smooth and oily body; pecan-nutty, only slightly chocolatey, hard-caramelly malt creaminess, quickly shifting to a toasted bitterness filling the second half of the flavour 'parcours' with a roasted chicory- and burnt bread-like bitterness, supported by a leafy hop character. The creaminess associated with oatmeal is certainly there from beginning to end - making for a very rounded feel without taking it too far. Very old school, and all the more pleasant for that reason, in my opinion.

Tap at FOB, Rimini, Italy. Pours black with practically no foam. Aroma is weak of coffee and earthy. Body is fairly dense, with average carbonation. Taste is abundantly roasty, with a little sweetish feeling underneath it. Final is a little disappointing.
