ChrisO ’Night Of The Gaylords’ tasting. Cloudy dark brown beer. A little blackcurrant in the malty nose. Unsweet chocolate and malt. Something chemical as well. Doesn’t hang together. Not nice!

Bottled@The Chriso Gaylord Tasting. Deep amber colour, small head. Aroma is some wood, chocolate, mild roasted malts as well as some strange sourish/bitter notes. Flavour is quite much the same. Not to fond of this one...

Bottle at the Chriso Gaylord tasting 09. Black, lasting tan head. Choc and blackcurrant on aroma. Musty, oxidised, not huge choc anywhere. Just a bit maybe. Not very stouty, not very choccy. Some sourness.

250ml bottle. Black. Fizzes like Coke and leaves no head at all. Nose has dark chocolate and some apples. Fizzy mouthfeel (weird for an oatmeal stout). Powdery cocoa and coffee. Slightly tart apple juice/ coriander (leaf) finish. Poor.

Dark chocolate, raspberries and dark cherries dominate the beer, but virtually no head and flat carbonation distract from what could be a great beer. More CO2 in bottle would have brough this beer to life.

Hazy darkish-brown. Crackery nose with a powdered chocolate note. Less powdery on the palate, adding a bland woodiness and hints of chocolate. Too fizzy for any of these vague sweet hints to do anything on the palate. And where’d they put the stout?

Bottle. I really enjoyed this - a great combination of stout and chocolate. Dark in colour with no head but quite lively carbonation at least in the mouth. The chocolate nose and taste was perhaps a little too subtle. However what there was, was excellent. It also well complemented the stout. Perhaps it could do with more maltiness, but the somewhat thin body and carbonation seemed to balance the richer aspects of chocolate and dark roast malt. The evolution from the initial smell, through fizzy and almost sharp first taste, through rich dark malt finally leaving a bitter chocolate aftertaste had me slowly savouring each mouthfull.

Bottled. Near black. Sweet chocolate aroma and flavour. Roasty and woody with some coffee and a clean, rounded mouthfeel. Doesn’t go overboard in any direction.
