Oatmeal Chocolate Milk Stout. A sweet milk stout with the addition of real cocoa and Irish oats. Full bodied with a sweetness to balance complex malts. The flavour and aroma is dark chocolate, coffee, caramel and cream with a background of rich malts, with a frosty tan head and a rich velvety mouth-feel.

Lattina. Arco olfattivo dominato dal cioccolato. L'intensità olfattiva è flebile. Il cappello di schiuma non è molto persistente. Il colore è scuro impenetrabile. Il corpo è pieno. L'amaro è pronunciato. La forza gustativa è elevata e la durata è buona. Il gusto è piacevole. Al palato finiscono sentori di miele, cioccolato, caffè, fiori e agrumi.

Pours dark brown from the bottle. A frothy beige head lingers. Aroma is milk chocolate, oatmeal, fresh white bread. Taste is mildly sweet, full of oatmeal cookies, milk chocolate, caramel, brown sugar. Lingering notes of milk chocolate and marshmallow at the finish. Body is medium, carbonation is soft. Overall a decent dessert stout without the boozy notes.

After a very hard pour, a creamy, frothy head stayed well on a jet black still body. Bitter berry, malt & dark chocolate aroma. Medium to full bodied, smooth yet bubbly in the mouth with a clean finish. Milky tastes with dark chocolate, bitter berry, plum, & dark sugar.
